Hi Dianne,
Thank you for the reply.
In this example I'm not sure what the baseUri should be :
Uri baseUri;
if (mCurFilter != null) {
baseUri = Uri.withAppendedPath(Contacts.CONTENT_FILTER_URI,
Uri.encode(mCurFilter));
} else {
baseUri = Contacts.CONTENT_URI;
}
I have a SQLiteDatabase which I get usually access via a SQLiteOpenHelper. All
the Loader examples I see refer to data stored as a ContentProvider.
Regards,
Julius.
