Store created data

[Rusty]

My app accumulates information from the user. I would like to store the data into an SQLite database. Creating and writing to the database, I've got done. Where will the data reside in the device. (It is in the Files folder)
In order to open the database, I have to copy it from dirassets to dirdefaultexternal. Can I copy the file back once updated? What creates permanent new storage and where will I find it on the device?
thanks,

The Files folder (assets folder) is read only as it is stored inside the APK file.
You can use other internal folders:
File.DirInternalCache or File.DirInternal.

Write: Msgbox(File.DirInternal, "") to find the exact path.

Thanks, Erel.
Is there a description of the differences between DirInternal, DirAssets, DirdefaultExternal, etc? I'm trying to store response information from the user in persistent storage that I can later transfer via FTP or other means.

You can search for it with the new Help tool: http://www.b4x.com/forum/basic4andr...viewer-view-search-documentation-offline.html
It is under the Files (Core) documentation.

Sorry, I should have checked there first. I've used your new HelpViewer many times. Very good work and a great search engine.
