Note: You will need AMS 5.x Pro and the SQLite plugin installed before you try to view this project!
I had a couple minutes and wanted to keep my SQLite "sharpness". So, I went ahead and coded this small project file to explain how to create a SQLite database, insert records into it, query it (get a list of data), and then output it (show it up in the Debug window). The neat (well to me anyway) part is that this SQLite database is "memory" loaded only (no files!). Much like a table (array) in AMS 5! But, with the SQLite I like that I can use the SQL on the data and output more easily what I want! Filtering even is easier (get only the data I need/want).
Please note that I "on purpose" did not include error correction code. This was done to keep it easy to understand how the SQLite plugin works, at least in this one instance.
But, you should always add error correction code into your projects, not just for the SQLite database!

Code:
-- Open the database (db), if it has not already been created
db = SQLite.Open(":memory:")
-- Create the various tables in the database
SQLite.Query(db, "CREATE TABLE sqlData(userid INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, LastName TEXT, FirstName TEXT, Country TEXT)")
-- Add some data into the database (db)
SQLite.Query(db, "Insert into sqlData values(Null, 'Finklestein', 'Roger', 'Utah')")
SQLite.Query(db, "Insert into sqlData values(Null, 'Ballard', 'Tim', 'California')")
SQLite.Query(db, "Insert into sqlData values(Null, 'Smortz', 'Barbara', 'Pennsylvania')")
-- Create an AMS table (tblRS) out of the SQLite database (db)
tblRS = SQLite.QueryToTable(db, "Select * from sqlData")
-- For each row of data (which are numbered) print out all of its data
for c=1, tblRS.Rows do
Debug.ShowWindow(true)
Debug.Print(tblRS.Data[c]["userid"]..".\r\n")
Debug.Print(tblRS.Data[c]["FirstName"].."\r\n")
Debug.Print(tblRS.Data[c]["LastName"].."\r\n")
Debug.Print(tblRS.Data[c]["Country"].."\r\n\r\n")
end
-- 'Not' always needed! But, it's recommended after manipulating a SQLite database.
SQLite.Close(db)
