Sorry for not being more clear in my original question so would like to 
offer more specific information.... 

I have a SQLITE database located at c:\web2py\applications\testme\databases

When running web2py, I have no problem connecting to the database. It loads 
the test data and works just fine. Web2Py is working great. 

The problem is when I try to connect to the database from the python 
command line to db = 
gluon.DAL('sqlite://storage.sqlite',folder='c:\web2py\applications\testme\databases"),
 
I get an OperationalError. If I I supply the DAL connection string to an 
empty folder it is creating the database and connecting just fine and have 
full access to the DAL api. So from the python shell, the DAL is connecting 
fine to a SQLITE database that was not created by Web2Py, but is not 
connecting to a database created from Web2Py. 

I have downloaded PyDAL into Python and can import either from there or 
from the Web2Py/gluon/packages/dal folder and neither will allow me to 
connect to a Web2Py created SQLITE database on a Windows Machine. I have 
ruled out different versions of PyDal and I am an administrator. I am left 
thinking I may be missing a parameter I have not groked in the docs, or 
Web2Py may add a protection to not allow connections outside of the Web2Py 
context.
