Hi all,
I've been trying to read the contacts list so that I can compare phone
numbers in it against the number on an incomming SMS message.
I've been getting an error that I just can't fix.

The method is:
public String checkContacts(String telNo)
    {
        String[] projection = new String[] {People.NAME, People.NUMBER};
        Uri mContacts = People.CONTENT_URI;
        String selection = People.NUMBER + "=" + telNo;
        String sort = People.NAME + " ASC";

        Cursor managedCursor = managedQuery(mContacts, projection,
selection, null, sort);
        startManagingCursor(managedCursor);

        if(managedCursor.getCount() > 0)
        {
                managedCursor.moveToFirst();
                return managedCursor.getString(0);
        }
        else
        {
                return telNo;
        }
    }

Output from LogCat looks like this:

If any further information is needed I can easily post it up.

Any advice or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
