sqlite3 *database;
// Setup some globals
NSString *databaseName = @"test.sql";

// Get the path to the documents directory and append the databaseName
NSArray *documentPaths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *documentsDir = [documentPaths objectAtIndex:0];
NSString * databasePath = [documentsDir stringByAppendingPathComponent:databaseName];
[databasePath retain];
sqlite3_stmt *compiledStatement;

NSString * TheNewText = self.animalDesciption.text; 
[TheNewText retain];

NSString * the_user = AnimalName ;
[ the_user retain];

NSString *NewData = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@%@%@%@", @"Update animals set description = ",TheNewText , " Where name =  ",the_user];

[NewData retain] ;

if(sqlite3_open([databasePath UTF8String], &database) == SQLITE_OK) {

    const char *sqlStatement = [NewData UTF8String];



if(sqlite3_prepare_v2(database, sqlStatement, -1, &compiledStatement, NULL)== SQLITE_OK) {

sqlite3_reset(sqlStatement);

NSString *NewData = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@%@%@%@", @"Update animals set description = ",TheNewText , @" Where name = ",the_user];

Note the @”Where name = “
