Ok, So the samples are a great guide and has helped me to better update a new table, but still having same issue the oldVersion is always the old version it never gets updated!!!
Why is this happening? The OnUpdate function gets called once in a while and my database tries to update when it shouldn't and messes up my data... :( I can check for column count and know that I don't need to update but this is not a great solution... it's going to hunt me on the future... Please help!? Where or how do we tell the SQLiteOpenHelper class that we are a new version now..? It seems that is not getting updated... : ( Thanks! -Moto!
