I am running data.bat file with the following lines:
Rem Tis batch file will populate tables
cd\program files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL
osql -U sa -P Password -d MyBusiness -i c:\data.sql
The contents of the data.sql file is:
insert Customers
(CustomerID, CompanyName, Phone)
Values('101','Southwinds','19126602729')
There are 8 more similar lines for adding records.
When I run this with start > run > cmd > c:\data.bat, I get this error message:

string or binary data would be truncated.

Also, I am a newbie obviously, but what do Level #, and state # mean, and how do I look up error messages such as the one above: 8152?
From #gmmastros's answer
Whenever you see the message....
string or binary data would be truncated
Think to yourself... The field is NOT big enough to hold my data.
Check the table structure for the customers table. I think you'll find that the length of one or more fields is NOT big enough to hold the data you are trying to insert. For example, if the Phone field is a varchar(8) field, and you try to put 11 characters in to it, you will get this error.
I had this issue although data length was shorter than the field length.
It turned out that the problem was having another log table (for audit trail), filled by a trigger on the main table, where the column size also had to be changed.
In one of the INSERT statements you are attempting to insert a too long string into a string (varchar or nvarchar) column.
If it's not obvious which INSERT is the offender by a mere look at the script, you could count the <1 row affected> lines that occur before the error message. The obtained number plus one gives you the statement number. In your case it seems to be the second INSERT that produces the error.
Just want to contribute with additional information: I had the same issue and it was because of the field wasn't big enough for the incoming data and this thread helped me to solve it (the top answer clarifies it all).
BUT it is very important to know what are the possible reasons that may cause it.
In my case i was creating the table with a field like this:
Select '' as Period, * From Transactions Into #NewTable
Therefore the field "Period" had a length of Zero and causing the Insert operations to fail. I changed it to "XXXXXX" that is the length of the incoming data and it now worked properly (because field now had a lentgh of 6).
I hope this help anyone with same issue :)
Some of your data cannot fit into your database column (small). It is not easy to find what is wrong. If you use C# and Linq2Sql, you can list the field which would be truncated:
First create helper class:
public class SqlTruncationExceptionWithDetails : ArgumentOutOfRangeException
{
public SqlTruncationExceptionWithDetails(System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException inner, DataContext context)
: base(inner.Message + " " + GetSqlTruncationExceptionWithDetailsString(context))
{
}
/// <summary>
/// PArt of code from following link
/// http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3666954/string-or-binary-data-would-be-truncated-linq-exception-cant-find-which-fiel
/// </summary>
/// <param name="context"></param>
/// <returns></returns>
static string GetSqlTruncationExceptionWithDetailsString(DataContext context)
{
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
foreach (object update in context.GetChangeSet().Updates)
{
FindLongStrings(update, sb);
}
foreach (object insert in context.GetChangeSet().Inserts)
{
FindLongStrings(insert, sb);
}
return sb.ToString();
}
public static void FindLongStrings(object testObject, StringBuilder sb)
{
foreach (var propInfo in testObject.GetType().GetProperties())
{
foreach (System.Data.Linq.Mapping.ColumnAttribute attribute in propInfo.GetCustomAttributes(typeof(System.Data.Linq.Mapping.ColumnAttribute), true))
{
if (attribute.DbType.ToLower().Contains("varchar"))
{
string dbType = attribute.DbType.ToLower();
int numberStartIndex = dbType.IndexOf("varchar(") + 8;
int numberEndIndex = dbType.IndexOf(")", numberStartIndex);
string lengthString = dbType.Substring(numberStartIndex, (numberEndIndex - numberStartIndex));
int maxLength = 0;
int.TryParse(lengthString, out maxLength);
string currentValue = (string)propInfo.GetValue(testObject, null);
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(currentValue) && maxLength != 0 && currentValue.Length > maxLength)
{
//string is too long
sb.AppendLine(testObject.GetType().Name + "." + propInfo.Name + " " + currentValue + " Max: " + maxLength);
}
}
}
}
}
}
Then prepare the wrapper for SubmitChanges:
public static class DataContextExtensions
{
public static void SubmitChangesWithDetailException(this DataContext dataContext)
{
//http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3666954/string-or-binary-data-would-be-truncated-linq-exception-cant-find-which-fiel
try
{
//this can failed on data truncation
dataContext.SubmitChanges();
}
catch (SqlException sqlException) //when (sqlException.Message == "String or binary data would be truncated.")
{
if (sqlException.Message == "String or binary data would be truncated.") //only for EN windows - if you are running different window language, invoke the sqlException.getMessage on thread with EN culture
throw new SqlTruncationExceptionWithDetails(sqlException, dataContext);
else
throw;
}
}
}
Prepare global exception handler and log truncation details:
protected void Application_Error(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Exception ex = Server.GetLastError();
string message = ex.Message;
//TODO - log to file
}
Finally use the code:
Datamodel.SubmitChangesWithDetailException();
Another situation in which you can get this error is the following:
I had the same error and the reason was that in an INSERT statement that received data from an UNION, the order of the columns was different from the original table. If you change the order in #table3 to a, b, c, you will fix the error.
select a, b, c into #table1
from #table0
insert into #table1
select a, b, c from #table2
union
select a, c, b from #table3
on sql server you can use SET ANSI_WARNINGS OFF like this:
using (SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection("Data Source=XRAYGOAT\\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog='Healthy Care';Integrated Security=True"))
{
conn.Open();
using (var trans = conn.BeginTransaction())
{
try
{
using cmd = new SqlCommand("", conn, trans))
{
cmd.CommandText = "SET ANSI_WARNINGS OFF";
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
cmd.CommandText = "YOUR INSERT HERE";
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
cmd.Parameters.Clear();
cmd.CommandText = "SET ANSI_WARNINGS ON";
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
trans.Commit();
}
}
catch (Exception)
{
trans.Rollback();
}
}
conn.Close();
}
I had the same issue. The length of my column was too short.
What you can do is either increase the length or shorten the text you want to put in the database.
Also had this problem occurring on the web application surface.
Eventually found out that the same error message comes from the SQL update statement in the specific table.
Finally then figured out that the column definition in the relating history table(s) did not map the original table column length of nvarchar types in some specific cases.
I had the same problem, even after increasing the size of the problematic columns in the table.
tl;dr: The length of the matching columns in corresponding Table Types may also need to be increased.
In my case, the error was coming from the Data Export service in Microsoft Dynamics CRM, which allows CRM data to be synced to an SQL Server DB or Azure SQL DB.
After a lengthy investigation, I concluded that the Data Export service must be using Table-Valued Parameters:
You can use table-valued parameters to send multiple rows of data to a Transact-SQL statement or a routine, such as a stored procedure or function, without creating a temporary table or many parameters.
As you can see in the documentation above, Table Types are used to create the data ingestion procedure:
CREATE TYPE LocationTableType AS TABLE (...);
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.usp_InsertProductionLocation
#TVP LocationTableType READONLY
Unfortunately, there is no way to alter a Table Type, so it has to be dropped & recreated entirely. Since my table has over 300 fields (😱), I created a query to facilitate the creation of the corresponding Table Type based on the table's columns definition (just replace [table_name] with your table's name):
SELECT 'CREATE TYPE [table_name]Type AS TABLE (' + STRING_AGG(CAST(field AS VARCHAR(max)), ',' + CHAR(10)) + ');' AS create_type
FROM (
SELECT TOP 5000 COLUMN_NAME + ' ' + DATA_TYPE
+ IIF(CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH IS NULL, '', CONCAT('(', IIF(CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH = -1, 'max', CONCAT(CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH,'')), ')'))
+ IIF(DATA_TYPE = 'decimal', CONCAT('(', NUMERIC_PRECISION, ',', NUMERIC_SCALE, ')'), '')
AS field
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE TABLE_NAME = '[table_name]'
ORDER BY ORDINAL_POSITION) AS T;
After updating the Table Type, the Data Export service started functioning properly once again! :)
When I tried to execute my stored procedure I had the same problem because the size of the column that I need to add some data is shorter than the data I want to add.
You can increase the size of the column data type or reduce the length of your data.
A 2016/2017 update will show you the bad value and column.
A new trace flag will swap the old error for a new 2628 error and will print out the column and offending value. Traceflag 460 is available in the latest cumulative update for 2016 and 2017:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-sg/help/4468101/optional-replacement-for-string-or-binary-data-would-be-truncated
Just make sure that after you've installed the CU that you enable the trace flag, either globally/permanently on the server:
...or with DBCC TRACEON:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/t-sql/database-console-commands/dbcc-traceon-trace-flags-transact-sql?view=sql-server-ver15
Another situation, in which this error may occur is in
SQL Server Management Studio. If you have "text" or "ntext" fields in your table,
no matter what kind of field you are updating (for example bit or integer).
Seems that the Studio does not load entire "ntext" fields and also updates ALL fields instead of the modified one.
To solve the problem, exclude "text" or "ntext" fields from the query in Management Studio
This Error Comes only When any of your field length is greater than the field length specified in sql server database table structure.
To overcome this issue you have to reduce the length of the field Value .
Or to increase the length of database table field .
If someone is encountering this error in a C# application, I have created a simple way of finding offending fields by:
Getting the column width of all the columns of a table where we're trying to make this insert/ update. (I'm getting this info directly from the database.)
Comparing the column widths to the width of the values we're trying to insert/ update.
Assumptions/ Limitations:
The column names of the table in the database match with the C# entity fields. For eg: If you have a column like this in database:
You need to have your Entity with the same column name:
public class SomeTable
{
// Other fields
public string SourceData { get; set; }
}
You're inserting/ updating 1 entity at a time. It'll be clearer in the demo code below. (If you're doing bulk inserts/ updates, you might want to either modify it or use some other solution.)
Step 1:
Get the column width of all the columns directly from the database:
// For this, I took help from Microsoft docs website:
// https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.data.sqlclient.sqlconnection.getschema?view=netframework-4.7.2#System_Data_SqlClient_SqlConnection_GetSchema_System_String_System_String___
private static Dictionary<string, int> GetColumnSizesOfTableFromDatabase(string tableName, string connectionString)
{
var columnSizes = new Dictionary<string, int>();
using (var connection = new SqlConnection(connectionString))
{
// Connect to the database then retrieve the schema information.
connection.Open();
// You can specify the Catalog, Schema, Table Name, Column Name to get the specified column(s).
// You can use four restrictions for Column, so you should create a 4 members array.
String[] columnRestrictions = new String[4];
// For the array, 0-member represents Catalog; 1-member represents Schema;
// 2-member represents Table Name; 3-member represents Column Name.
// Now we specify the Table_Name and Column_Name of the columns what we want to get schema information.
columnRestrictions[2] = tableName;
DataTable allColumnsSchemaTable = connection.GetSchema("Columns", columnRestrictions);
foreach (DataRow row in allColumnsSchemaTable.Rows)
{
var columnName = row.Field<string>("COLUMN_NAME");
//var dataType = row.Field<string>("DATA_TYPE");
var characterMaxLength = row.Field<int?>("CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH");
// I'm only capturing columns whose Datatype is "varchar" or "char", i.e. their CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH won't be null.
if(characterMaxLength != null)
{
columnSizes.Add(columnName, characterMaxLength.Value);
}
}
connection.Close();
}
return columnSizes;
}
Step 2:
Compare the column widths with the width of the values we're trying to insert/ update:
public static Dictionary<string, string> FindLongBinaryOrStringFields<T>(T entity, string connectionString)
{
var tableName = typeof(T).Name;
Dictionary<string, string> longFields = new Dictionary<string, string>();
var objectProperties = GetProperties(entity);
//var fieldNames = objectProperties.Select(p => p.Name).ToList();
var actualDatabaseColumnSizes = GetColumnSizesOfTableFromDatabase(tableName, connectionString);
foreach (var dbColumn in actualDatabaseColumnSizes)
{
var maxLengthOfThisColumn = dbColumn.Value;
var currentValueOfThisField = objectProperties.Where(f => f.Name == dbColumn.Key).First()?.GetValue(entity, null)?.ToString();
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(currentValueOfThisField) && currentValueOfThisField.Length > maxLengthOfThisColumn)
{
longFields.Add(dbColumn.Key, $"'{dbColumn.Key}' column cannot take the value of '{currentValueOfThisField}' because the max length it can take is {maxLengthOfThisColumn}.");
}
}
return longFields;
}
public static List<PropertyInfo> GetProperties<T>(T entity)
{
//The DeclaredOnly flag makes sure you only get properties of the object, not from the classes it derives from.
var properties = entity.GetType()
.GetProperties(System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Public
| System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance
| System.Reflection.BindingFlags.DeclaredOnly)
.ToList();
return properties;
}
Demo:
Let's say we're trying to insert someTableEntity of SomeTable class that is modeled in our app like so:
public class SomeTable
{
[Key]
public long TicketID { get; set; }
public string SourceData { get; set; }
}
And it's inside our SomeDbContext like so:
public class SomeDbContext : DbContext
{
public DbSet<SomeTable> SomeTables { get; set; }
}
This table in Db has SourceData field as varchar(16) like so:
Now we'll try to insert value that is longer than 16 characters into this field and capture this information:
public void SaveSomeTableEntity()
{
var connectionString = "server=SERVER_NAME;database=DB_NAME;User ID=SOME_ID;Password=SOME_PASSWORD;Connection Timeout=200";
using (var context = new SomeDbContext(connectionString))
{
var someTableEntity = new SomeTable()
{
SourceData = "Blah-Blah-Blah-Blah-Blah-Blah"
};
context.SomeTables.Add(someTableEntity);
try
{
context.SaveChanges();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
if (ex.GetBaseException().Message == "String or binary data would be truncated.\r\nThe statement has been terminated.")
{
var badFieldsReport = "";
List<string> badFields = new List<string>();
// YOU GOT YOUR FIELDS RIGHT HERE:
var longFields = FindLongBinaryOrStringFields(someTableEntity, connectionString);
foreach (var longField in longFields)
{
badFields.Add(longField.Key);
badFieldsReport += longField.Value + "\n";
}
}
else
throw;
}
}
}
The badFieldsReport will have this value:
'SourceData' column cannot take the value of
'Blah-Blah-Blah-Blah-Blah-Blah' because the max length it can take is
16.
Kevin Pope's comment under the accepted answer was what I needed.
The problem, in my case, was that I had triggers defined on my table that would insert update/insert transactions into an audit table, but the audit table had a data type mismatch where a column with VARCHAR(MAX) in the original table was stored as VARCHAR(1) in the audit table, so my triggers were failing when I would insert anything greater than VARCHAR(1) in the original table column and I would get this error message.
I used a different tactic, fields that are allocated 8K in some places. Here only about 50/100 are used.
declare #NVPN_list as table
nvpn varchar(50)
,nvpn_revision varchar(5)
,nvpn_iteration INT
,mpn_lifecycle varchar(30)
,mfr varchar(100)
,mpn varchar(50)
,mpn_revision varchar(5)
,mpn_iteration INT
-- ...
) INSERT INTO #NVPN_LIST
SELECT left(nvpn ,50) as nvpn
,left(nvpn_revision ,10) as nvpn_revision
,nvpn_iteration
,left(mpn_lifecycle ,30)
,left(mfr ,100)
,left(mpn ,50)
,left(mpn_revision ,5)
,mpn_iteration
,left(mfr_order_num ,50)
FROM [DASHBOARD].[dbo].[mpnAttributes] (NOLOCK) mpna
I wanted speed, since I have 1M total records, and load 28K of them.
This error may be due to less field size than your entered data.
For e.g. if you have data type nvarchar(7) and if your value is 'aaaaddddf' then error is shown as:
string or binary data would be truncated
You simply can't beat SQL Server on this.
You can insert into a new table like this:
select foo, bar
into tmp_new_table_to_dispose_later
from my_table
and compare the table definition with the real table you want to insert the data into.
Sometime it's helpful sometimes it's not.
If you try inserting in the final/real table from that temporary table it may just work (due to data conversion working differently than SSMS for example).
Another alternative is to insert the data in chunks, instead of inserting everything immediately you insert with top 1000 and you repeat the process, till you find a chunk with an error. At least you have better visibility on what's not fitting into the table.
This question already has answers here:
How to store image in SQLite database
(6 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
I have an app it can get image from my phone gallery but how I can store that image into SQLite database and get that image for user profile from the SQLite database.
In order to store an image in the SQLite database you have to use "blob".
Examples:
Storing an image
public void insertImg(int id , Bitmap img ) {
byte[] data = getBitmapAsByteArray(img); // this is a function
insertStatement_logo.bindLong(1, id);
insertStatement_logo.bindBlob(2, data);
insertStatement_logo.executeInsert();
insertStatement_logo.clearBindings() ;
}
public static byte[] getBitmapAsByteArray(Bitmap bitmap) {
ByteArrayOutputStream outputStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
bitmap.compress(CompressFormat.PNG, 0, outputStream);
return outputStream.toByteArray();
}
Retrieving an image
public Bitmap getImage(int i){
String qu = "select img from table where feedid=" + i ;
Cursor cur = db.rawQuery(qu, null);
if (cur.moveToFirst()){
byte[] imgByte = cur.getBlob(0);
cur.close();
return BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(imgByte, 0, imgByte.length);
}
if (cur != null && !cur.isClosed()) {
cur.close();
}
return null;
}
I suggest you to follow this tutorial
You can store the image as a blob
create your table this way
"CREATE TABLE TABLE_NAME_HERE (lastname TEXT, gender TEXT, signature BLOB)"
declare your person class as
public String Lastname;
public String Gender;
public byte[] Signature;
get the image as and convert to byte array
byte[] signatureByte = //get the image byte array here
add to db as
SQLiteDatabase db = OpenDb();
ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(KEY_LAST_NAME, person.Lastname);
values.put(KEY_GENDER, person.Gender);
values.put(KEY_SIGNATURE, person.Signature);
db.insert(TABLE_NAME_HERE, null, values);
retrieve as
SQLiteDatabase db = OpenDb();
Cursor cursor = db.rawQuery("SELECT * FROM " + TABLE_NAME_HERE, null);
if (cursor.moveToFirst()) {
Person person = new Person();
person.Lastname = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(KEY_LAST_NAME));
person.Gender = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(KEY_GENDER));
person.Signature = cursor.getBlob(cursor.getColumnIndex(KEY_SIGNATURE));
return person;
}
display as
signature.setImageBitmap(BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(person.Signature, 0, person.Signature.length))
Alternatively, you can store the image in your application folder and store a reference to it in you db. that way you can retrieve it.
Your first issue you should consider is whether or not you should be saving images in the database.
Generally storing images it is not a good idea.
For Android storing and retrieving large images say over 100KB can be problematic. Under such a size (perhaps larger) SQLite can actually be quite efficient 35% Faster Than The Filesystem(Note that this document is relatively old)).
Unless you devise alternatives to the standard Android SDK then the absolute maximum size of an image that can be retrieved is under 2MB. That is due to a CursorWindow (a buffer for the returned rows) being only 2MB.
In short if any image to be stored is nearing 2MB or is 2MB or larger then you will not be able to retrieve it without complicating matters. Such a method is explained in this Q and A, How to use images in Android SQLite that are larger than the limitations of a CursorWindow? Note this method is not recommended.
What is recommended is that images are saved to disk and that the path (or enough of the path to uniquely identify the full path to the image) is instead stored. Thus you retrieve that path from the database and then retrieve the image from the extracted path.
The Answer at How can I insert image in a sqlite database. Demonstrates both this methodology and also of saving smaller images (100k or less) in the database (taking advantage of 35% Faster Than The Filesystem).
I'm seeing a crash report for this occassionally:
Fatal Exception: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Couldn't read row 1127, col 0 from CursorWindow. Make sure the Cursor is initialized correctly before accessing data from it.

Apparently the moveToNext is failing mid-loop (note row 1127). The loop removes entries that represent files that can no longer be found.
final ArrayList<ContentProviderOperation> operations = new ArrayList<>();
try( Cursor cursor = c.getContentResolver().query(Meta.CONTENT_URI, null, null, null, null))
{
if (cursor == null)
return;
final int uriColumn = cursor.getColumnIndex(Meta.URI);
final int idColumn = cursor.getColumnIndex(BaseColumns._ID);
while (cursor.moveToNext())
{
String uriString = cursor.getString(uriColumn);
if (uriString == null) // we've got some bogus data, just remove
{
operations.add(ContentProviderOperation.newDelete(
Uri.withAppendedPath(Meta.CONTENT_URI, cursor.getString(idColumn))).build());
continue;
}
Uri uri = Uri.parse(uriString);
UsefulDocumentFile file = UsefulDocumentFile.fromUri(c, uri);
if (!file.exists())
{
operations.add(ContentProviderOperation.newDelete(Meta.CONTENT_URI)
.withSelection(getWhere(), new String[]{uriString}).build());
}
}
}
c.getContentResolver().applyBatch(Meta.AUTHORITY, operations);
Any idea how a cursor could fail mid-loop like that?
You appear to be making a fairly large query: at least 1127 rows, and for all possible columns (despite the fact that you are only using two of them). And, during your work with that Cursor, you are doing disk I/O and/or IPC back to the ContentProvider, assuming that UsefulDocumentFile is related to Android's DocumentFile.
As Prakash notes, the Cursor that you get back may contain only a subset of the information. As soon as you try advancing past that point, the Cursor needs to go back to the data source and get the next window of results. I can see you running into this sort of problem if there has been a substantial change in the data while this work has been going on (e.g., there are now fewer than 1127 rows).
I suggest that you:
Constrain the columns that you get back to the subset that you need, and
Avoid the I/O during the loop (e.g., spin through the Cursor to build up an ArrayList<Pair> or something, close the Cursor, then iterate over the list)
may be you are srote file in database that's why you get java.lang.IllegalStateException
UsefulDocumentFile file = UsefulDocumentFile.fromUri(c, uri);
Android SQLite returns rows in cursor windows that have the maximum size of 2MB as specified by
config_cursorWindowSize.If your row exceeds this limit, you'll get this error.
Store files in filesystem and paths in database.
in my application I am displaying a list of items queried from the database with the use of Loader Manager and Content Provider. The results are attached to a SimpleCursorAdapter and then displayed on the List View. I would like to be able to load, let's say up to 20 items at first and when scrolling to the end of that list, load up additional 20 items. Up to now, I used similar approach as here:
How to update listview whose data was queried from database through SimpleCursorAdapter?
i.e. limiting query results to 20 and increasing the number appropriately in the OnScrollListener and restarting the loader with new instructions.
The problem is with this statement:
incomeAdapter.swapCursor(data);
It completely resets adapter's data, therefore only the second batch of items are displayed on the list. Is there any way to simply load additional items on top of existing ones? Thanks
EDIT:
Merging cursors like this:
if (incomeAdapter.getCursor() != null){
Log.v("Income Activity", "current adapter");
Cursor oldData = incomeAdapter.getCursor();
MergeCursor merge = new MergeCursor(new Cursor[] {oldData, data});
incomeAdapter.swapCursor(merge);
}
else {
Log.v("Income Activity", "no current adapter");
incomeAdapter.swapCursor(data);
}
throws an exception:
07-13 16:56:15.455: E/AndroidRuntime(5665): FATAL EXCEPTION: main
07-13 16:56:15.455: E/AndroidRuntime(5665): android.database.StaleDataException:
Attempting to access a closed CursorWindow.Most probable cause: cursor is deactivated
prior to calling this method.
EDIT2:
As per request, the code where data is requested:
public Loader<Cursor> onCreateLoader(int id, Bundle args) {
orderBy = sortOrder + " LIMIT " + limitSkip + "," + limitCount;
CursorLoader cursorLoader = new CursorLoader(this,
DatabaseProvider.CONTENT_URI1, PROJECTION, null, null, orderBy);
return cursorLoader;
}
You need to use the previous cursor: incomeAdapter.getCursor() and merge it with the new data.
MergeCursor comes to your aid there:
Cursor oldData = incomeAdapter.getCursor();
MergeCursor merge = new MergeCursor(new Cursor[] {oldData, data});
incomeAdapter.swapCursor(merge);
EDIT:
You are using a CursorLoader. You don't need to re-query the database or LIMIT your queries. The loader does all that for you when specific data is requested.
