    private static final String Table_Record =

        "create table Student (_id integer primary key autoincrement, "
        + "Name text not null,rate integer, Phone text not null,Salary text not null,email text not null,address text not null,des text not null,qual text not null,doj text not null);";

Answer 2

REAL is what you are looking for. Documentation of SQLite datatypes

Answer 3

I think you should give the data types of the column as NUMERIC or DOUBLE or FLOAT or REAL

Read http://sqlite.org/datatype3.html to more info.

Answer 4

actually I think your code is just fine.. you can save those values as strings (TEXT) just like you did.. (if you want to)

and you probably get the error for the System.currentTimeMillis() that might be too big for INTEGER

Answer 5

SQL Supports following types of affinities:

• TEXT
• NUMERIC
• INTEGER
• REAL
• BLOB

If the declared type for a column contains any of these "REAL", "FLOAT", or "DOUBLE" then the column has 'REAL' affinity.
