Normally null pointer exceptions seem to be view related - where the wrong layout is targeted. This is different I reckon. I have four textviews in a layout and one returns a null, the rest work fine. Here is the layout: <pre><code><?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:orientation="vertical" > <TextView android:id="@+id/text" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="hello" /> <TextView android:id="@+id/text2" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="stringello2" /> <TextView android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="ip" android.id="@+id/iptest" /> <TextView android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="hostname" android:id="@+id/hostname" /> </LinearLayout> </code></pre> And here is the test code: <pre><code>public class MainActivity extends Activity { /** Called when the activity is first created. */ protected TextView text; protected TextView ip; @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); text = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.text); text.setText("goodbye"); text = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.hostname); text.setText("hostname flibble"); // text = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.text2); text = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.iptest); text.setText("ip flibble"); } } </code></pre> If I switch the comment to the other textview, it works fine. If I target <code>iptest</code> it returns null and raises an exception. Any ideas why? All four appear in <code>gen</code> and they all reappear if I delete <code>gen</code> and recompile.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
