    <b></b>
    <h2>
      <b>Features:</b><br>
    </h2>
    <UL>
      <LI>
      Written from scratch on VS2005 specifically for ADO.NET 2.0, implementing all the
      base classes and features recently introduced in the framework, including automatic
      transaction enlistment.<li>Supports the Full
        and Compact .NET Framework, as well as native C/C++ development.&nbsp; 100% binary
        compatible with the original sqlite3.dll.</li>
      <LI>
      On the Compact Framework, it is faster than the newly-introduced Sql Server 
      Mobile.  SQLite's installed size is a fraction of Sql Mobile's. It uses less memory at runtime, runs queries faster, and has a smaller database file size as well.
      <li>Encrypted database support.&nbsp; Encrypted databases are fully encrypted and
        support both binary and cleartext password types.</li>
      <LI>
      Visual Studio 2005 Design-Time Support, works with all versions of VS2005, including
      all Express Editions.&nbsp; 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.
      <LI>
      Single file redistributable.&nbsp; The core sqlite3 codebase and the ADO.NET wrapper 
      are combined into one multi-module assembly.
      <LI>
      Binaries included for Itanium, x64, x86 and ARM processors.
      <LI>
      DbProviderFactory support.
      <LI>
        Full support for ATTACH'ed databases.&nbsp; Exposed as <I>Catalogs</I>
      in the schema.&nbsp; When cloning a connection, all attached databases are 
      automatically re-attached to the new connection.
      <LI>
        DbConnection.GetSchema(...) support includes <I>ReservedWords, MetaDataCollections</I>, <I>DataSourceInformation</I>,
        <I>DataTypes, Columns</I>, <I>Tables</I>, <I>Views, ViewColumns, </I><I>Catalogs, </I><I>Indexes, 
          IndexColumns </I>and <EM>ForeignKeys</EM>
      .
      <LI>
      Enhanced DbDataReader.GetSchemaTable() functionality returns catalog, namespace 
      and detailed schema information even for complex queries.
      <LI>
      Named and unnamed parameters.
      <LI>
      Full UTF-8 and UTF-16 support, each with optimized pipelines into the native 
      database core.
      <LI>
      Multiple simultaneous DataReaders (one DataReader per Command however).
      <LI>
      Full support for user-defined scalar and aggregate functions, encapsulated into 
      an easy-to-use base class in which only a couple of overrides are necessary to 
      implement new SQL functions.
      <LI>
      Full support for user-defined collating sequences, every bit as simple to 
      implement as user-defined functions and uses the same base class.
      <LI>
        Full source for the entire engine and wrapper.&nbsp; No copyrights.&nbsp; 
        Public Domain.&nbsp; 100% free for commercial and non-commercial use.&nbsp;</LI></UL>
    <strong></strong>
    <h2>
      <strong>Design-Time Support (new as of 1.0.14)</strong></h2>
    <P>
      In Windows Explorer, navigate to the <STRONG>SQLite.NET\bin\Designer</STRONG>
        folder and execute the <STRONG>INSTALL.EXE</STRONG>
      file.&nbsp; The program will
      automatically detect what version(s) of Visual Studio 2005 are installed and allow
      you to selectively install and uninstall the designer for each edition.</P>
    <H2><STRONG>DbFactory Support (Non-Compact Framework)</STRONG></H2>
    In order to use the SQLiteFactory and have the SQLite data provider enumerated 
    in the DbProviderFactories methods, you must add the following segment into your application's app.config file:<br>
    <br>
    <pre>&lt;configuration&gt;
  &lt;system.data&gt;
    &lt;DbProviderFactories&gt;
      &lt;remove invariant="System.Data.SQLite"/&gt;
      &lt;add name="SQLite Data Provider" invariant="System.Data.SQLite" description=".Net Framework Data Provider for SQLite"<BR > type="System.Data.SQLite.SQLiteFactory, System.Data.SQLite" /&gt;
    &lt;/DbProviderFactories&gt;
  &lt;/system.data&gt;
&lt;/configuration&gt;
</pre>
    <p>See the help documentation for further details on implementing both version-specific (GAC enabled) and version independent DBProviderFactories support.
      </p>
    <h3>
      Compiling for the Compact Framework</h3>
    <p>
      Just change the target platform from Win32 to Compact Framework and 
      recompile.&nbsp; <STRONG>The Compact Framework has no support for enumerating 
        attributes in an assembly, therefore all user-defined collating sequences and 
        functions must be explicitly registered.</STRONG>&nbsp; See the <STRONG>testce</STRONG>
      sample application for an example of how to explicitly register user-defined 
      collating sequences and functions.</p>
    <h2>
      <b><A name="redist"></A>Distributing The SQLite Engine and ADO.NET Assembly</b></h2>
    <P>
      Only the <STRONG>System.Data.SQLite.DLL</STRONG> file needs to be distributed with your 
      application(s).&nbsp; This DLL contains both the managed wrapper and the native 
      SQLite3 codebase.</P>
    <H2><B>Development Notes Regarding the SQLite 3 Source Code</B></H2>
    <p>
      The SQLite3 source code is compiled directly from the SQLite.org release
      sources.&nbsp; All builds of sqlite after 3.2.8 have included support for Windows CE.&nbsp; Additionally,
      just one minor modification is made to pager.c, that modification is made automatically by the fixsource.vbs file
      when the VS2005 solution is compiled.</p>

    <p>
      <b>Version History</b></p>
    <p><b>1.0.33.0 - August 21, 2006</b></p>
    <ul>
    <li>Code merge with SQLite 3.3.7</li>
      <li>Fixed a bug in SQLiteConnection that caused it to "forget" about commands bound
      to it and occasionally throw an error when a database is closed and opened repeatedly.&nbsp;
      </li>
    </ul>
    <p><b>1.0.32.0 - August 6, 2006</b></p>
    <ul>
    <li>Added AllowPartiallyTrustedCallers attribute to the assembly</li><li>Added the missing "nchar" type</li>
      <li>Added support for binary Guid's.&nbsp; Guids are now stored as binary by default
        when using parameterized queries.&nbsp; Text guids are still fully supported.</li>
      <li>Fixed a TransactionScope() error that caused the transaction not to be completed.</li>
      <li>Enhanced parameter names so that if they are added to the Parameters collection
        without their prefix character (@ : or $) they are still properly mapped.&nbsp;</li>
    </ul>
    <p><b>1.0.31.0 - July 16, 2006</b></p>
    <ul>
    <li>Re-applied the view parsing bugfix in 1.0.29.0 that was accidentally reverted
      out of the 30 build.</li><li>Fixed SQLiteCommand.ExecuteScalar() to return null instead of DbNull.Value
    when no rows were returned.</li>
      <li>Design-time installer now installs the package-based designer on full Visual Studio
        versions.&nbsp; Express editions continue to use the packageless designer.</li>
      <li>In Visual Studio (not Express), you can now right-click a SQLite connection in
        the Server Explorer and vacuum the database and change the encryption password.</li>
    </ul>
    <p><b>1.0.30.1 - July 2, 2006</b></p>
    <ul>
    <li>Code merge with SQLite 3.3.6</li>
      <li>Added support for the |DataDirectory| keyword in the Data Source filename string.&nbsp;
      </li>
      <li>Added hook notification support to SQLiteConnection.&nbsp; Specifically, there
      are three new events on the SQLiteConnection object which are raised when an update/insert/delete
      occurs and when transactions are committed and rolled back.</li><li>Changed SQLiteTransaction to default to BEGIN IMMEDIATE instead of just BEGIN,
    which solves a multithreaded race condition.&nbsp;</li>
      <li>Changed SQLiteDataReader to better support SQLite's typelessness.&nbsp; The data
        reader no longer caches column affinity, but re-evaluates it for each column/row.</li>
      <li>Fixed a bug in Prepare() which caused an intermittant fault due to the code accessing
        the memory of an unpinned variable.&nbsp;</li>
      <li>Fixed a multithreaded lock-retry bug in in SQLiteConnection.Open() and in
    SQLiteTransaction, which failed to use a command timeout before giving up.</li>
    </ul>
    <p><b>1.0.29.0 - May 16, 2006</b></p>
    <ul>
    <li>Fixed a bug in the Views schema information which caused multi-line view definition statements not to be parsed</li>
    <li>Fixed a parsing bug in SQLiteDataReader.GetSchemaTable() to account for numeric(x,y) datatypes with specified precision and scale</li>
    <li>Fixed a bug in SQLiteConnection.Open() which tried to automatically enlist in an ambient transaction but had not yet set the state of the database to Opened, thereby causing a transaction fault</li>
    <li>Changed SQLiteException to inherit from DbException on the full framework</li>
    </ul>
    <p><b>1.0.28.0 - April 14, 2006</b></p>
    <ul>
    <li>Code merge with SQLite 3.3.5</li>
      <li>You can now specify a relative path in the Compact Framework's "Data Source" by
        prefixing the file with ".\".&nbsp; i.e. "Data Source=.\\mydb.db3"</li>
      <li>Several more changes and enhancements to schemas for better compatibility.</li>
      <li>Fixed several bugs with the 64-bit builds of the provider.&nbsp; The x64 binary
        is now optimized.</li>
      <li>Design-time installer now tries to install the 64-bit builds into the GAC along
        with the 32-bit build.</li>
      <li>Fixed a bug in the SQLiteDataReader.GetSchemaTable() function when used with tables
        containing apostrophes.</li>
      <li>Fixed an XSD-related bug whereby the XSD utility was unable to locate the provider
        and could not generate typed datasets.</li>
      <li>Added NTEXT and STRING datatypes to the list of recognized keywords (used for
        schema retrieval).</li>
      <li>Due to the XSD bug and other potential problems related to external build utilities,
        changes to the installation of the designer have had to be made.&nbsp; The installer
        used to write the DbProviderFactories XML into the devenv.exe.config file and its
        express cousins, but now has to write instead to the machine.config.</li>
      <li>Installer writes to both the 32-bit machine.config and the 64-bit machine.config
        if it exists.&nbsp;</li>
    </ul>
    <p><b>1.0.27.1 - February 28, 2006</b></p>
    <ul>
    <li>Fixed a bug when doing data binding in Compact Framework projects that prevented
      you from assigning a typed dataset to a bindingsource.&nbsp; It turns out, the CF
      version of the SQLite provider needs to be flagged as retargetable so it'll work
      in the design-time desktop environment.&nbsp; No changes were made to the desktop
      build, but the revision was bumped on all libraries anyway in order to keep them
      sync'd.&nbsp;</li></ul>
    <p><b>1.0.27.0 - February 27, 2006</b></p>
    <ul>
    <li>Many optimizations and a few more minor adjustments to schemas and schema retrieval
      performance.</li>
      <li>Lots of design-time attributes added to the code.&nbsp; The DbDataAdapter, DbCommand,
        and DbConnection objects now have greatly enhanced design-time capabilities when
        added to the toolbox and dropped on a form.</li>
      <li>Lots of Server Explorer enhancements.</li>
      <li>Binaries are now distributed in a setup program for easier administration and
        configuration of the provider.</li>
    </ul>
    <p><b>1.0.26.2 - February 15, 2006</b></p>
    <ul>
    <li>Yet another bugfix to index schemas, which was incorrectly marking most indexes
      as primary key indexes.</li><li>Fixed GetSchema() to accept a null string array.</li><li>Fixed a misspelled export in the core C library that prevented databases opened
    with UTF16Encoding from getting schema information and would likely cause an error
    if attempted.</li></ul>
    <p><b>1.0.26.1 - February 14, 2006</b></p>
    <ul>
    <li>Fixed even more minor schema bugs having to do with indexes.</li><li>Added two missing pieces in the SQLite designer which were preventing it from
    being used from within VS Express editions.&nbsp;</li><li>Several bugfixes to the design-time installer program, including supporting
    64-bit environments.</li></ul>
    <p><b>1.0.26.0 - February 11, 2006</b></p>
    <ul>
    <li>Code merge with SQLite 3.3.4</li><li>Fixed an encryption bug when changing the password of databases over 1gb in
      size.&nbsp;</li><li>Fixed various designer issues related to construction of named parameters.</li>
      <li>Retooled the GetSchema() method of SQLiteDataReader to use the new 3.3.4 API functions,
        and made several enhancements and fixes to schemas.&nbsp;</li>
      <li>Implemented the SourceColumnNullMapping property of SQLiteParameter to fix
    a DbCommandBuilder code generation bug.&nbsp;</li><li>Removed the runtime dependency on MSVCR80.DLL.&nbsp; File size is somewhat
    larger for the varying desktop versions.</li><li>Created an install program to manage installation and uninstallation of the
    SQLite design-time support.</li>
      <li>Designer support now works for all Visual Studio editions, including all Express
        Editions.</li>
      <li>Design-time installer will now remove (if present) the machine.config SQLite entries
        in favor of installing the xml code into the devenv.exe.config file (or any of the
        variations for express editions).&nbsp; The officially-accepted behavior of using
        DbProviderFactories is to add the code to your app.config file, and the machine.config
        file should not be touched.</li>
    </ul>
    <p><b>1.0.25.0 - January 31, 2006</b></p>
    <ul>
    <li>Code merge with SQLite 3.3.3</li><li>Added automatic distributed transaction enlistment and implemented the DbConnection.EnlistTransaction
    method for manual enlistment.</li>
      <li>Nested transactions are now supported.</li>
      <li>Rearranged the timing of SetPassword(), which now must be called before the database
        is opened instead of afterwards.&nbsp; Optionally, the password can be supplied
        in the ConnectionString.</li>
      <li>Fixed a bug in SQLiteFunction that caused a failure when an empty resultset was
        returned and a custom user aggregate function was used in the query.</li>
      <li>The designer has had another round of cleanup applied, in preparation for moving
        to a VS package.</li>
      <li>Added SQLiteMetaDataCollectionNames class.</li>
    </ul>
    <p><b>1.0.24.6 beta - January 23, 2006</b></p>
    <ul>
    <li>This beta is built from sqlite.org's 3.3.2 beta.</li><li>Eliminated the static linking of mscoree from all binaries.&nbsp; Native projects
      can now use the library without any dependencies on the .NET framework, while managed
      projects continue to be able to use the library normally.</li></ul>
    <p><b>1.0.24.5 beta - January 20, 2006</b></p>
    <ul>
    <li>This beta is built from sqlite.org's 3.3.1 alpha and contains development-in-progress code.&nbsp; Therefore no guarantees
      can be made regarding its suitability for production use.</li>
    <li><strong>You no longer need to distribute 2 files on the CompactFramework.&nbsp;
      You can delete SQLite.Interop.DLL entirely.&nbsp; </strong>I wrote a custom tool
      called "mergebin" (available in the source zip file) which combines the two libraries
      and gets around a glaring defect in the VS2005 linker for ARM processors which doesn't
      allow you to link netmodules.</li>
      <li><strong>x64 and ia64 builds now use the same strong name as the x86 build.</strong>&nbsp;
        This means breaking backward compatibility, but it was necessary in order to allow
        you to drop any of those 3 builds onto a PC and have your .NET program run properly.&nbsp;
        Prior to this, you'd get an error if you built your program using the x86 build,
        and then installed the x64 version on a target machine and tried to run your program
        against it.</li>
      <li>The entire source project has been gone over top to bottom.&nbsp; A debug build
        no longer combines the binaries into a single module, which was preventing proper
        debugging.</li></ul>
    <p><b>1.0.24.4 beta - January 16, 2006</b></p>
    <ul>
    <li>This beta is built from sqlite.org's 3.3.1 alpha and contains development-in-progress code.&nbsp; Therefore no guarantees
      can be made regarding its suitability for production use.</li>
    <li>Fixed a bug in the UTF-16 handling code for preparing statements due to a behavioral
      change in SQLite 3.3.0.</li>
      <li>Added pager.c code necessary to cleanup after an encrypted file is closed.</li>
      <li>Fixed an encryption bug that caused a fault when an encrypted file was rolled
        back.</li>
      <li>Modified the testcase code to take advantage of optimizations regarding the use
        of a DbCommandBuilder.&nbsp; DataAdapter insert speed increased dramatically as
        a result.</li>
    </ul>
    <p><b>1.0.24.3 beta - January 10, 2006</b></p>
    <ul>
    <li>This beta is built from sqlite.org's 3.3.0 alpha and contains development-in-progress code.&nbsp; Therefore no guarantees
      can be made regarding its suitability for production use.</li><li>Added support for database encryption at the pager level.&nbsp; Databases
    are encrypted using a 128-bit RC4 stream algorithm.&nbsp; To open an existing encrypted
    database, you may now specify a "Password={password}" text in the ConnectionString,
    or you may call the SQLiteConnection.SetPassword() function to set the password
    on an open connection. &nbsp;To encrypt existing non-encrypted databases or to change
    the password on an encrypted database, you must use the SQLiteConnection.ChangePassword()
    function.&nbsp; If you use SetPassword() instead of specifying a password in the
    connection string, or call ChangePassword() you may use a binary byte array or a
    text string as the password.</li>
      <li>Rewrote the locking implementation for the Compact Framework.&nbsp; It is now
        more robust and incorporates into the SQLite codebase more efficiently than the
        previous CE adaptation.</li>
      <li>Moved some of the embedded schema XML data into a resource file to ease code readability.</li>
      <li>Automated the fixup of the original sqlite codebase's source prior to compiling,
        to ease merging with sqlite.org's source.</li>
      <li>Fixed a memory leak in SQLiteCommand due to it not removing an internal reference
        to itself in SQLiteConnection.&nbsp; </li>
    </ul>
    <p><b>1.0.24.2 - December 30, 2005</b></p>
    <ul>
    <li>Fixed the SQLiteDataReader.HasRows property to return the proper value.</li>
      <li>Implemented the inadvertently neglected RecordsAffected property on SQLiteDataReader.
      </li>
      <li>SQLiteFunction static constructor was changed to pre-filter classes with only the
        SQLiteFunctionAttribute.&nbsp; The code was throwing an exception when certain
        assemblies were referenced in a project. </li>
      <li>Fixed the SQLiteDataAdapter OnRowUpdated event, which was using the wrong variable
        to find the attached event handler and subsequently not raising the event.</li>
      <li>Small optimizations and fixes to SQLiteDataReader.NextResult().&nbsp;</li>
    </ul>
    <p><b>1.0.24.1 - December 19, 2005</b></p>
    <ul>
    <li>Update core SQLite engine to 3.2.8&nbsp;</li></ul>
    <p><b>1.0.24 - December 9, 2005</b></p>
    <ul>
    <li>Fixed the<em> Catalogs</em> schema bug that caused attached databases not to be re-attached to a cloned connection
    </li>
      <li>Enhanced transactions to allow for a deferred or immediate writelock. &nbsp;SQLiteConnection.BeginTransaction()
        now has an additional overload to support it&nbsp;</li><li>Commands are now prepared as they are executed instead of beforehand.&nbsp; This
      fixes a bug whereby a multi-statement command that alters the database and subsequently
      references the altered data would fail during Prepare().</li><li>Tightened up the SQLiteDataReader to prevent reading columns before calling
    the first Read() and to prevent reading columns after the last Read().</li>
      <li>A more descriptive error is thrown if there aren't enough parameters in the command
        to satisfy the parameters required by the statement(s).&nbsp;</li>
    </ul>
    <p><b>1.0.23 - November 21, 2005</b></p>
    <ul>
    <li>Named parameters may now begin with <strong>@</strong> to ease portability of
      the provider. SQLite's named parameters are ordinarily prefixed with a <strong>: </strong>
      or<strong> $</strong>.&nbsp; The designer will still use the <strong>$</strong>
      prefix however, since its more compatible with the default SQLite engine.</li><li>Added several alternate ISO8601 date/time formats to SQLiteConvert.cs to increase
    compatibility.</li>
      <li>Relaxed coersion restrictions to work better with SQLite's inherent typelessness.&nbsp;</li>
    </ul>
    <p><b>1.0.22 - November 11, 2005</b></p>
    <ul>
    <li>Fixed some globalization issues which resulted in incorrect case-insensitive comparisons</li>
      <li>Fixed a bug in the routine that finds all user-defined functions in a loaded assembly.&nbsp;
        It would throw an exception if any of the types in the assembly could not be loaded.&nbsp;
        The exception is now caught and handled appropriately.</li>
    </ul>
    <p><b>1.0.21 - November 4, 2005</b></p>
    <UL>
      <li>Fixed a designer bug when creating typed datasets with parameterized queries.</li>
      <li>The above fix then exposed another bug in the datareader's ability to query schema
        information on parameterized commands, which was also fixed.</li>
      <li>Compiled against the RTM version of VS2005.</li>
      <li>Rewrote the design-time install script to use the XML DOM objects when writing
        to the machine.config and to automatically register the DLL in the GAC.</li><li>Made changes to the app.config descriptions and help file to improve version-independent
        factory support.</li></UL>
    <p><b>1.0.20 - October 19, 2005</b></p>
    <UL>
      <li>
        Fixed a shortcut in SQLiteBase.GetValue which was insufficient for 
        international environments.&nbsp; The shortcut was removed and the "proper" 
        procedure put in.</li></UL>
    <p><b>1.0.19 - October 5, 2005</b></p>
    <UL>
      <li>
      Code merge with SQLite 3.2.7
      <LI>
      Fixed bugs in the CE port code (os_wince.c)&nbsp;which were brought to 
      light&nbsp;by&nbsp;recent changes in the SQLite engine.
      <LI>
        Recompiled and modified to be compatible with the September VS2005 Release 
        Candidate.<br>
        Beta 2 users should continue to use 1.0.18.1</LI></UL>

      Bugfixes and enhancements to several schema types

      Additional design-time support to include index and foreign key

      typed datasets to automatically link up foreign keys, use indexes, and 
      automatically generate relationships from the schema.<li>
        Additional static methods on SQLiteConnection to create a database file,

      Fixed a bug in the SQLiteDataAdapter due to insufficient implementation of the 
      class.&nbsp; The RowUpdating and RowUpdated events are now properly 
      implemented, but unfortunately inserting and updating data in a DataTable or 
      DataSet is now much slower.&nbsp; This is the proper design however, so the 
      changes are here to stay.
      <LI>
      Lots of schema changes to support Visual Studio's Data Designer architecture.<li>Added 
        Designer support for the provider.&nbsp; It's not 100%, but you can design 
        queries, add typed datasets and perform quite a number of tasks all within 
        Visual Studio now.</li></ul>

          Full support for the Compact Framework.&nbsp; Each build (Debug/Release) now

        Modified SQLite3.Reset() and Step() functions to transparently handle timeouts 
        while waiting on the database to become available (typically when a writer is 
        waiting on a reader to finish, or a reader is waiting on a writer to finish).

        <LI>
          Statements&nbsp;were already prepared lazily&nbsp;in a SQLiteCommand, but now 
          its even more lazy.&nbsp; Statements are now only prepared if the statements 
          haven't been previously prepared and a Prepare() function is called (and the 
          command is associated with a connection) or just prior to the command being 
          executed.&nbsp;</LI></UL>

      assembly is now a multi-module assembly, containing both the native SQLite3 
      codebase and the C# classes built on top of it.&nbsp; The Compact Framework 
      version (when completed) will not be able to support this feature, so backwards

        Fixed a bug in SQLiteCommand.ExecuteScalar() that caused it to stop executing 
        commands once it obtained the first column of the first row-returning

      Fixed a bug in the SQLite3.cs Prepare() function that created a statement even 
      when the SQLite engine returned a NULL pointer. Typically this occurs when 
      multiple statements are processed and there are trailing comments at the end of 
      the statement.
      <LI>
        Fixed a bug in SQLiteStatement.cs that retrieved parameter names for a 
        parameterized query.&nbsp; SQLite's parameters are 1-based, and the function 
        was starting at 0.&nbsp; This was fine when all parameters were unnamed, but 
        for named parameters it caused the parameters to be out of whack.

      Due to the presence of the altered sqlite3 codebase and so many added interop 
      functions, I decided to rename the sqlite3 C project and the DLL to 
      SQLite.Interop.DLL.&nbsp; This is the same core sqlite3 codebase but designed 
      specifically for this ADO.NET provider.&nbsp; This eliminates any possibility 
      of someone dropping another build of sqlite3.dll into the system and rendering 
      the provider inoperable.&nbsp; In the future if the folks at sqlite.org finally 
      introduce a method of retrieving column usage for an arbitrary prepared 
      statement, I'll retool this library to be a lightweight function call wrapper 
      around the core binary distribution.
      <LI>
      Added [SuppressUnmanagedCodeSecurity] attribute to the UnsafeNativeMethods 
      class which brings VS2005 November CTP execution speeds inline with the 
      December CTP.

        Added a <B>bin</B>

      Fixed a counting bug in the TestCases class, specifically in the function tests 
      where I wasn't resetting the counter and it was consequently reporting

      were.&nbsp; The numbers are now much closer to what I expected for performance, 
      with .NET user-functions still being the slowest, but only by a small margin.
