The APK file cannot be modified at runtime, so you will not be able to delete your data file if it is packaged in the APK. If you download the data file after install, you can delete the downloaded data file after conversion to SQLite (or just download it in SQLite format in the first place). -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com Android App Developer Books: http://commonsware.com/books.html -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
