News is stored in a SQLitedatabase, when i pulled the database from my DDMS, it contains all 6 rows with valid values none of them is null.</p> <p>Edit: This is my GetAllNews Method</p> <pre><code>public News[] getAllNews(){ SQLiteDatabase db = ConMan.OpenDBConnection(); try{ Cursor cursor = db.query(News_Table, Columns, null, null, null, null, null); if(cursor!=null) { cursor.moveToFirst(); } News[] allNews = new News[cursor.getCount()]; int i =0; while(cursor.isLast()){ allNews[i] = new News(Integer.parseInt(cursor.getString(0)), cursor.getString(1),cursor.getString(2)); cursor.moveToNext(); i++; } db.close(); ConMan.close(); return allNews; }catch(Exception e) { Log.e("News DB Errors", e.getMessage()); } return null; } </code></pre>

    2. COLooks like `allNews[i]` is null. Put a logging statement or debugging breakpoint there and I'll bet this is the case.

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.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
