you should pass bathroom with apices, so 'bathroom' not bathroom.

with apices sql knows you are talking about a value not a column name.

String APICE = "'"; //the value is '
sampleDB.execSQL("SELECT RoomID FROM " +ROOM_TABLE_NAME+"where
RoomName="+ APICE + selectedRoom + APICE);


hope i understood the problem.
