how can I store and retrieve in SQLite database multiple values for the same row of the same column?
i.e. I have a product column and another column is stores, where I put in all the stores, where it is possible to get this product:
Product: iLamp; Stores: River's; McWay; Lonnie's; ... How can I implement this?
Thank you in advance.
like others have mentioned, you could store it as a comma separated string, and then put that in your database, but like ocdecio mentioned, the way you have your tables right now is bad a design. You should consider doing something like adding another table, like a
PRODUCT_TO_STOREtable that has two columns, one has the key of a product, and the other column has the key to a store. Then there is a relationship between products and stores, and helps normalize your data, which in most cases, is a good thing. Then when you need to find all the stores a product is in you could just perform a query on thatPRODUCT_TO_STOREtable.
