Read SQLite Encrypted from CopyFiles

Further to my previous post on encrypting App files I am following suggestions to put my Regex dictionaries into/out of encrypted SQLite files stored in my copy files.
I think I have been able to encrypt the files ok but can’t read them back. I have just been following the examples and have the following but can’t connect to the DB. Where could the issue be?

Var file As FolderItem = SpecialFolder.Resource("MyDictionary.sqlite")

If file <> Nil Then
  mDBSQLite = New SQLiteDatabase
  mDBSQLite.DatabaseFile = file
  mDBSQLite.EncryptionKey = "aes256:5uper_2ecurePa55m0r9!"
  If Not mDBSQLite.Connect Then
    MessageBox("Error connecting to the database")
  End If
Else
  MessageBox("Error found while creating the file")
End If

mDBSQLite.Decrypt

SQLExtractData  //extract the data and put back in Dictionaries
