I am rather new also but I have had great success reading in databases straight from SQL (mySQL). Why are you converting them to a local source?

the database of my customer is web based and he use it with .asp and he don't want remote access.
So need to be local in the mobile and don't get the data remotely.that customer want. (No remote access to database)
