Question

I am trying to create multiple database tables in android where each table will represent an account. I am struggling to get more then one table per database

Would anyone have any sample code they could show me? Or any suggestions?

Thanks

I don’t know anything about your app, but the way you’re designing your database schema sounds a little questionable. Does creating a table for every account (whatever an “account” might be) really make the most sense?

Regardless, creating tables in SQLite is pretty straightforward. In your SQLiteOpenHelper class, you can call db.execSQL(CREATE_TABLE_STATEMENT) to create a table, where CREATE_TABLE_STATEMENT is your SQL statement for a particular table. You can call this for every table you need created. This is typically going to be called in your SqliteOpenHelper’s onCreate method when the database is initialized, but you can call it outside of the helper as well.
