# tSQLiteInput

Executes a DB query with a defined command which must correspond to the schema definition. It passes on rows to the next component via a Main row link.

tSQLiteInput reads a database file and extracts fields based on an SQL query. As it embeds the SQLite engine, no need of connecting to any database server.
