Thanks for the responses. It's a relatively simple database application - so it should fit fine.
I downloaded the windows command line program and created a database and then copied it to the device emulator - and worked fine. i was also able to read from the dafault database folder (e.g./data/data/<package>/databases/). but i don't see any problems with reading from SD card either. For others, trying to create a database outside the device and then reading the database on the device - the COLLATORS flag is required. SQLiteDatabase db = SQLiteDatabase.openDatabase(dbfile, null, SQLiteDatabase.OPEN_READONLY|SQLiteDatabase.NO_LOCALIZED_COLLATORS ); -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
