I have a Listview, populated from a sqlite database. The database is created with:
egrohDB.execSQL("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS " + EGROH_DB_TABLE_ITEMS +
" (ident integer primary key AUTOINCREMENT, " +
"id integer(15), " +…

To get data from the database I use rawQueries and for inserting data I’m using InsertHelper. I added one row to the table. And now I’m getting an IllegalArgumentException, that mit id row is invalid.

    You create column “id” and are asking for column “item_id”… not in the code you show but somewhere….

    It is in your insert.
