P PJLPJLPJL Member Licensed User Longtime User Jun 18, 2021 #1 Apologies if I'm being stupid or I've missed this in another thread. I have used the ExternalStorage library to access and read and write files (as byte streams) using the built in (OpenInputStream/OpenOutputStream) methods. But I want to open a database (SQLite or Access). Is there a way to pass the pathname acquired as an ExternalFile (via ExternalStorage) to the Open/Initialise methods of the SQL or JACCCESS etc. handler? With thanks.
