One approach is to copy the database file. Tactically, new File(getFilesDir(), "../databases") is the directory where your database file resides. Copy it using ordinary Java I/O, though I recommend you not hold any open SQLiteDatabase objects on the database at the time. Now, the database path location may change in future Android releases, and I am not aware of a place in the API to get the path to a database in a more official fashion. Hence, you will need to double-check with each Android release to confirm they have not moved the databases someplace else. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Looking for Android opportunities? http://wiki.andmob.org/hado --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
