Thanks Mark, content values work great.  I am hoping for a few more
examples or some direction from the experts today.

I want to get sqlite data into an expandable list view (activity).
After combing through the user groups and looking at docs and sample
code, I find nothing that shows a SimpleCursorTreeAdapter for ELV
holding data from sqlite.  It looks like this adapter is intended for
use with the OTHER cursor, the one holding data returned from a
content provider query.  Should I be using a different adapter for
sqlite data?  If so, which one?

Thanks in advance for any advice.
Best regards,
Beth
