Hello so i've been getting this problem from the LOGCAT

"android.database.sqlite.SQLiteException: table salary_table has no column named ID (code 1 SQLITE_ERROR): , while compiling: INSERT INTO salary_table(ID,SALARY,NAME) VALUES (?,?,?)"

And my code is straight out a code that I know works, so my question what is the issue?

Appreciate any help

@Override
   public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {
       db.execSQL("CREATE TABLE " + TABLE_NAME
               + "(ID INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,"
               + COLUMN_NAME + " TEXT,"
               + COLUMN_SALARY + " TEXT)");

   }

What I have tried:

Tried several different Create table options.

Why use autoincrement when the some SQLlite websites advises against it? SQLite AUTOINCREMENT : Why You Should Avoid Using It[^]

The default value in SQLlite for a primary key is a one higher than the highest value for that column in the table. Unless you include a value for the column when inserting.

So basically what ur saying is that I can remove the autoincrement and the outcome will be the same? Tried it and worked without Increment, will have that in mind, thank you.
