If you go to the SqLite web site, there are some free utilities you can download - or if you're comfortable with writing code, there are Sqlite "connectors". For instance, when I'm writing something where I care more about implementation time than execution time, I use Python, which is easy. In that environment, I'd use pysqlite for easy access to sqlite dbs
To get a notion of the schema NBP is using, download sqlite3 and try the following command, which will list the contents.
sqlite3 "filters.db3" "SELECT FL_FilterName,FL_FilterText FROM FilterList x, FilterMatchSubjects y WHERE x.FL_FilterId = y.FL_FilterId UNION SELECT FL_FilterName,FL_FilterText FROM FilterList x, FilterMatchFiles y WHERE x.FL_FilterId = y.FL_FilterId;"
Note that sqlite3.exe and filters.db need to be in the same directory for this to work.
It seems like a batch import would be straightforward to build. Just use the windows "ini-file" format, which python and perl and vb have built in parsers for (well, in perl, it's tacked on, but so is everything else). I asked some while back (when I didn't have a couple of deadlines bearing down on me) about interest in such a utility. Interest was basically zero, so I built the easiest thing that satisfied my own needs, which was a batch file that uses the above statement to list filters.db contents.
newsgroup that lists a short Biography of every recording artist
What newsgroup might that be? Don't answer unless there's some non-copyrighted info in there, so as not to get yourself in trouble. But a NG like that might actually prompt me to write something that looks for all the artists I have CDs for.
