Hi

I am following the Android phone example from youtube.
It works , except for one small detail.

The app displays the list of contacts , but it doesnot display the
names of the contacts. It is a list of blank lines.

When I click on any blank line it dials the correct contact.

How do i display the name of the contact.

According to the youtube tutorial by Dan Morrill the following three
lines should be displaying the name. Am I missing anyhting?


         String[] columns = new String[] {People.NAME};
         int[] names = new int[] {R.id.row_entry};
         mAdapter = new SimpleCursorAdapter(this, R.layout.main, C, columns,
names);


I have attached my code below.

Thanks in advance

mario
