Good Day livecoders,

Guys, I am trying to create a database on my android device "Acer iconia B1" I used this script

------ > put specialFolderPath("/storage/sdcard1") & "/cbms.db" into tDatabasePath

but I got error message, I can't create the database

I already checked the application permission in the standalone setting.

what's wrong with my code, guys?

Thank you.

Regards

Hi snop21,
There are only a few specialFolderPath/s and you cannot just create them.

Look in the dictionary.

Thank you.

Hi snop21,
Have you tested what happens when you just use specialFolderPath("documents") and the user moves the app to the sd card??

Install Location>Allow External Storage

Simon,

I tried it to install it with my andriod device. I set Allow external but I can't still find the database file which is .db..

Klaus,

I was using specialfolder("documents") I want to save my database file into the sd card but i still can't see it..
