Adobe Air for iOS - SQLError: 'Error #3115' no such table

Question

I am developing Adobe Air application for iOS with sqlite on it. When running on my local machine, it worked like charm (add, edit & delete). Unfortunately, when tried running on iPAD, it gives me the following error:
SQLError: 'Error #3115', details:'no such table: 'tblEmploye'', operation:'execute', detailID:'2013'
Here's my code when opening the sqlite database: ** data file is saved on the current application directory where all the files are stored:
        exampleDBFile = File.documentsDirectory.resolvePath("mydb.db");
        if (exampleDBFile==null || !exampleDBFile.exists) {
            MovieClip(root).mcSong.visible = false;
            MovieClip(root).mcAlert.visible = true;
            MovieClip(root).mcAlert.enabled = true;
            MovieClip(root).mcAlert.txtErrorMessage.text = "Database not found";
        exampleDB = new SQLConnection();
        exampleDB.addEventListener(SQLEvent.OPEN, onExampleDBOpened);
        exampleDB.addEventListener(SQLErrorEvent.ERROR, onExampleDBError);
        //exampleDB.openAsync(exampleDBFile);
        exampleDB.open(exampleDBFile);
I also tried using the following but still no luck
exampleDBFile = File.applicationDirectory.resolvePath("mydb.db");           
when using this, i receive a different error : Error:Error #3104
And heres the code for adding new entries
        sqlInsert = "insert into tblLyrics (empName, empDesc) values
                    ('"+ strReplace(txtSearchMe.text, "'", "") + "','"+ strReplace(txtContent.text,"'","") +"')";
        dbStatement.text = sqlInsert;       
        dbStatement.addEventListener(SQLEvent.RESULT, onDBStatementInsertResult);       
        dbStatement.execute();
Hoping for your advice....

Hi,
I am sorry you are facing this issue. Is the code that you posted all that you are doing? It is missing a few things:
1) You are not creating the dbFile and the table tblEmployee. Do they already exist on your desktop? On device, you would need to create them.
2) dbStatement.SQLConnection property is not set anywhere.
The following sample code is from http://help.adobe.com/en_US/air/reference/html/flash/data/SQLConnection.html. Could you try and see if it works for you?
package
     import flash.data.SQLConnection;
     import flash.data.SQLResult;
     import flash.data.SQLStatement;

               // open the database connection
               conn = new SQLConnection();
               conn.addEventListener(SQLErrorEvent.ERROR, errorHandler);
