Not able to fetch data from Sqlite Database
I want to fetch data from SQLITE database and display it in a LIST.
My database name is AppDB.db and table name is Scrip which contains 3 columns _id(primary key) and symbol&company_name which are text.
I want to fetch only 2nd and 3rd column. I have copied database in Assets folder.
I get force close when I execute following code but I don't know what might be the reason. Please help..
I'm absolute beginner to Android, so any help appreciated...

5.) I ALWAYS GET THIS ERROR

6.) SCREENSHOT of DB :
WHOLE DOC EDITED TO LATEST CODE AND ACC. TO YOUR SUGGESTIONS, but still app doesn't work.
I don't know what you are trying to do with this function. You're trying to read a .db file and say the DB is created. First time when you try to run there won't be a .db file in the database path. That is why the 'No such File or Directory' error is thrown.
