Android Question sqlite database file on SDCard

[Binary01]

Hi,

I created a database app. It can access database from internal storage.
sample code is here:

'process global
Dim DBFileName As String : DBFileName = "sample.db3"
Dim DBFileDir As String : DBFileDir = File.DirDefaultExternal

'Activity_Create
If FirstTime Then
If File.Exists(File.DirDefaultExternal, DBFileName) = False Then
File.Copy(File.DirAssets, DBFileName, DBFileDir, DBFileName)
End If
SQL1.Initialize(DBFileDir, DBFileName, True)
End If

Now, I want to access database file on SD Card.
How?

Thanks.

SD card on Android is problematic. Starting from Android 4.4 you can only access a single folder: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/how-to-ext-sd-card-write-on-android-4-4.42177/#post-255351

Once you get the correct path you just need to use it instead of File.DirDefaultExternal.
