hi, you have to use setTransactionSuccessful() as in
int nRows = 0; mDb.beginTransaction(); try { nRows = mDb.delete("mytable", KEY_ITEM + "=" + rowId,null); mDb.setTransactionSuccessful(); // implies commit at endTransaction } catch( SQLException anyDbError } // error logging ... } finally { mDb.endTransaction(); } return nRows > 0; worx for me marcus ________________________________ Von: Jack C.
