Questions

1 ) Everything is alright until bold code. when i run the app, throws an exception below. I have one table and one row in my db relatively, id (integer), name (varchar), desc (varchar) (I created my table using SQLite Manager).

2-) What is text type in SQLite Manager? Is that NSString? Also how can I put the string values(in table) to an NSMutableArray ? (I am really having difficulty in conversion.)
