I'm using VS 2013 to develop Win 8.1 app. I chose to deal with SQLite but I coudn't find the data provider when I was trying to add a new connection to manage my database.

Any help is appreciated

I would like to add something to JDL answer : as my windows is x64, I've installed the related version (sqlite-netFx451-setup-bundle-x64-2013-1.0.94.0) and it didn't work : no new connector in VS. As VS is 32 bits application, I was wondering if it could be related. So I tried the x86 one and got my answer, it was now ok : even on a x64 system, the version to install to enable VS designer support is the x86. Good to know !! - AFract
