Hi there guys,

I have a bit of a problem here. I have the following code:

Implementation:
Qt Code: 
  1. //This function will open the database file (which should lie in the path indicated by the user)
  2. void mainwindow::loaddatabase() {
  3.     //This pretty much says that the database will be of SQLite type, and opens it up from a given path
  4.     QSqlDatabase db = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QSQLITE");
  5.     db.setDatabaseName(path);
  6.  
  7.     //This "if" shows up a messagebox in case the program cannot load a given database
  8.     if (!db.open()) {
  9.         QMessageBox::warning(0, qApp->tr("Cannot open database"),
  10.                 qApp->tr("Unable to establish a database connection.\n"
  11.                          "This program requires a database to operate. Please contact "
  12.                          "the developer of this software for more information on "
  13.                          "how to use it.\n\n"), QMessageBox::Ok);
  14.     }
  15.  
  16.     //Note: "medadmin" is the name of the table in the SQLite3 database
  17.     model->setTable ("medadmin");
  18.     model->select();
  19.     ...
  20. }
To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 


Qt Code: 
  1. //this makes the openFile dialog get path of the database file and then invocate loaddatabase with such path as the parameter
  2. void mainwindow::openfile() {
  3.  
  4.  path = QFileDialog::getOpenFileName(this,
  5.      tr("Open Database File"), "/Users", tr("SQLite Database File (*.db)"));
  6.  if (!path.isEmpty()){
  7.      loaddatabase();
  8.  }
  9. }
To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

This was declared in the header:

Qt Code: 
  1. class mainwindow : public QMainWindow
  2. {
  3.         //declaring the path variable
  4.         QString path;
  5.         ...
  6. }
To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

... And it doesn't work! whenever test the program and select a open a .db file he does nothing! I believe that the problem might be associated with the QString path.

Any code with be greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance
