<h1 class="heading">Installing SQLite Visual Studio Design-Time Support</h1>
<p>Supporting the Visual Studio query designer and allowing you to manipulate
SQLite databases from within Visual Studio is a great time-saver. Though
the support is not yet fully-implemented, there's certainly enough there to
keep you busy. You can create databases, design and execute queries,
create typed datasets and lots more all from Visual Studio.</p>
<h3> Installation Instructions</h3>
<p>Download and run one of the setup packages and then select the "<b>Install
the designer components for Visual Studio 20XX.</b>" option when prompted.</p>
<h3> Express Edition Limitations</h3>
<p>Visual Studio design-time Support, works with all versions of Visual Studio
2005/2008/2010/2012/2013. You can add a SQLite database to the Servers list, design
queries with the Query Designer, drag-and-drop tables onto a Typed DataSet, etc.
<br />
<font color="red">
Due to Visual Studio licensing restrictions, the Express Editions can no
longer be supported.
