Hi, great tutorials - especially for someone like me whose just dipping their little toe into the world of Android development for the first time.

I tried this one out and am probably missing something here but I can't seem to get this to work />/>/> I'm just left with a blank screen when I run the code.

Also, the code in the step-by-step explain it all section is a little different in the Complete Code section at the end ...which is the one we should use ?

03 public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
04 super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
05
06 this.list = new ListView(this);
07 setContentView(this.list);
08
09 this.db = this.openOrCreateDatabase("dic_tut4", MODE_PRIVATE, null);
10 this.db.execSQL("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS table_of_dics(value REAL)");
11 this.update_list();
12 }

its a blank screen because there is no data to display. click menu and add data and you will see it on your screen

So how then do you add data into the menu?
Cos you can't click what you don't see right?
