Answer 1

Try something similar to achieve your task ..

First, you are opening the "DB1" database, and then execute the following statement:

ATTACH DATABASE "2ndDB.db" AS 2ndDB;

After that, you can use the CREATE TABLE syntax:

CREATE TABLE newTableInDB1 AS SELECT * FROM 2ndDB.oldTableInMyOtherDB;

This will "copy" the data over to your new database
