Developing a Blackberry Widget and trying to create database, cannot find appdata/rim/gears folder on the BOLD 9700 simulator. If i simulate on Storm the appdata/rim/gears folder is available and it lists the database. Can anyone suggest what might be wrong??

The Storm device has a built in eMMC card that will allow Gears databases to be stored on it. A Bold 9700 does not have this card. You must have an SD Card inserted into a Bold 9700 for Gears databases to work.
This an be emulated using the simulator's menu:
Simulate -> Change SD Card..
You can create a directory on your machine that will act as the SD card for the device

Thanks for your quick response.
When i insert SD Card it is not creating the folder system/appdata/rim/gears/
The blackberry folder is created.

When you run your widget with the Gears database does the database now get created?

How can i tell if the databae is being created?
The code appears to be running ok, but can't find database.
