    <p>I have the following execSQL that is throwing a syntax error and causing my app to crash. I can't figure out why, considering I've escaped single and double quotes.</p> <p>Here is the code:</p> <pre><code>database.execSQL("insert into " + TABLE_EXERCISES + " (" + COLUMN_NAME + ", " + COLUMN_PRIMARY_MUSCLE + ", " + COLUMN_SECONDARY_MUSCLE + ", " + COLUMN_EQUIPMENT_TYPE + ", " + COLUMN_STEPS + ", " + COLUMN_IMAGES + ") values ('Cable Shrugs', 'Traps', 'None', 'Cable', 'Attach a flat shoulder width bar to the lowest cable pulley. Stand with your feet shoulder width apart. Keep your abs tight and a slight bend in your knees to protect your lower back. Starting with the bar at waist height, raise your shoulders toward your ears as if you\'re saying,\"I don\'t know.\" Hold briefly at the top of the contraction then lower in a slow and controlled manner.', 'cable-shrugs-1.png|cable-shrugs-2.png')"); </code></pre> <p>Anyone have any idea?</p> <p>Here is the log:</p> <pre><code>12-29 23:31:54.174: E/AndroidRuntime(1207): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.gauvion.gfit/com.gauvion.gfit.RoutinesActivity}: android.database.sqlite.SQLiteException: near "re": syntax error (code 1): , while compiling: insert into exercises(name, primary_muscle, secondary_muscle, equipment_type, steps, images) VALUES ('Cable Shrugs', 'Traps', 'None', 'Cable', 'Attach a flat shoulder width bar to the lowest cable pulley.

    2. COAlso note that escaping single quotes in SQLite is by double-single-quotes (`''`), not backslashes: http://www.sqlite.org/faq.html#q14 You really should consider using positional parameters rather than hand-coding all the escaping.

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.
