    <p>I am creating my first android app, and now struck on a weird issue </p> <p>Here is the situation: The user can enter a numeric value for any given date. </p> <p>Issue: So when user tries to give another score for the same date, as we all know the app should over write the old value and update the new value the user just gave.</p> <p>So I have a update method that gets the rowId and overwrites old values by new. but what's happening in my table is scary. When I update a numeric value for the same date say 6/6/2011. it creates another record, now I have 2 entries on same date one is old and one is new. and then when i do it to some other date say 6/7/2011(like give a value for a date and then update it) the duplicate column created for 6/6/2011 is gone and a duplicate column is created for 6/7/2011.</p> <pre><code>updateValue(...){ ContentValues args = new ContentValues(); args.put(KEY_DATESTAMP_SUBTABLE, day); args.put(KEY_HABIT, habit); args.put(KEY_USER_SCORE_SUBTABLE, userScore); args.put(KEY_CALCULATED_SCORE_SUBTABLE, calculateCompoundScore(scoringMethod, userScore, importance)); String whereClause = KEY_ROWID + "=" + rowId; return mDb.update(SCORE_TABLE, args, whereClause, null) &gt; 0; } </code></pre> <p>can anybody explain me this behavior!!!!</p> <p>I edited and added the code: </p> <p>edited: I found the problem, it is a dumb mistake, the rowID is the row id of a different table, so every time i delete using that it gives me wild results. It is my bad..BUt @Alex idea helped me to figure it out as for update as he said, i deleted first and then inserted, while doing this i found it is deleting some other row. </p> <p>Thanks</p>

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.
