I am trying to hardcode a single row into my SQLite database. I want to know if this will work or, if I should do something different? I want to continue using my content values, because I have so much code written with my content values. 

public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        db.execSQL("CREATE TABLE " + DB_TBL + " (" +
                KEY_ROWID + " INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, " + 
                KEY_LEVEL + " INTEGER NOT NULL, " + 
                KEY_HEALTH + " INTEGER NOT NULL, " +
                KEY_NAME + " TEXT NOT NULL, " +
                KEY_CRIT + " INTEGER NOT NULL, " +
                KEY_CRIT_RANGE + " INTEGER NOT NULL, " +
                KEY_CRIT_INC + " INTEGER NOT NULL, " +
                KEY_HIT_RANGE + " INTEGER NOT NULL, " +
                KEY_HIT_INC + " INTEGER NOT NULL, " +
                KEY_CHAR_IMG + " INTEGER NOT NULL, " +
                KEY_TOTAL_XP + " INTEGER NOT NULL, " +
                KEY_XP + " INTEGER NOT NULL, " +
                KEY_XP_NEEDED + " INTEGER NOT NULL, " +
                KEY_COINS + " INTEGER NOT NULL, " + 
                KEY_SMALL_POTS + " INTEGER NOT NULL, " +
                KEY_LARGE_POTS + " INTEGER NOT NULL)"
            );
        DbHelper helper = new DbHelper();//I have to put a context in the argument 
        SQLiteDatabase database = helper.getWritableDatabase();//but I don't know what to put or if I'm doing it right
         values = new ContentValues();
            values.put(KEY_NAME, "User1");
            values.put( KEY_LEVEL, 1);
            values.put(KEY_HEALTH, 10);
            values.put(KEY_CRIT, 5);
            values.put(KEY_CRIT_RANGE, 2);
            values.put(KEY_CRIT_INC, 2);
            values.put(KEY_HIT_RANGE, 2);
            values.put(KEY_HIT_INC, 0);
            values.put(KEY_TOTAL_XP, 0);
            values.put(KEY_XP, 0);
            values.put(KEY_XP_NEEDED, 25);
            values.put(KEY_COINS, 5);
            values.put(KEY_SMALL_POTS, 0);
            values.put(KEY_LARGE_POTS, 0);
            values.put(KEY_CHAR_IMG, 1);
            database.insert(DB_TBL,  null, values);

    }

    That will work, as long as ourDatabase references db. But the best way to test it is to try it yourself.

    As a note, you are putting integers into text columns. While this is not an error in SQLite because of type affinity, it doesn’t really make sense and you might have trouble when you try to sort those columns numerically. You should declare them as INTEGER.
