Question

I want to query the contacts provider in android with a given number.

I have something like this

            String queryString= "NUMBER='" + msgs[i].getOriginatingAddress() + "'"; 
            Uri contacts = ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI ;

            Cursor cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(
                       contacts,
                       null, queryString, null,
                       null
                       );

then how do I go upon going to the first row? Like this?

cursor.getString(<how do i reference to the first row?>);

right?

Try this :

 String strNumber= "7777777777"; 
 String queryString= "NUMBER='" + strNumber + "'"; 
 Uri contacts = ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI ;

 Cursor cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(
            contacts,
            null, queryString, null,
            null
            );

Hope this help!
