 SQLite is a file based database, so the format of the URL will not include the "hostname".
-get the latest JDBC driver: https://www.sqlite.org/download.html (the driver is included in the distribution,i.e. sqlite-jdbc-3.27.2.1.jar)
+get the latest JDBC driver from SourceForge:
+https://sourceforge.net/projects/sqlite-jdbc-driver.mirror/files/latest/download
 **Database Driver Class**: org.sqlite.JDBC
 **Database URL**: <code> jdbc:sqlite:db_name </code>
+Example: jdbc:sqlite:testdb.sqlite
+This will create a file called testdb.sqlite in the directory where the application is running. When testing in MIStudio this will be the MIStudio main directory. If you are testing in TransSECS (Builder) this file will appear in the TransSECS/Builder directory.
 Note: usually add .sqlite to the file name for SQLite databases, so for example, db_name.sqlite
+====SQL Server Express====
+The JDBC driver that is compatible with Java 8 could be found at:
+[[https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/microsoft/sqlserver/mssql-jdbc/12.4.2.jre8/]]
+JDBC needs to be a Jar in the “drivers” directory of the project.  Right-click the “Drivers” node in MIStudio to add it.
+{{:jarsfiles.jpg?400|}}
+Choose the first file "mssql-jdbc-12.4.2.jre8.jar" and add it.
+close the project and reload it after adding the driver, or you can exit MIStudio and restart.
+Set MIStudio to LIVE when connecting to the database.
