Error #3115: SQL Error.', details:'no such table

Question

Hi,
I'm creating my Adobe Air App using Flash CS5 Professional and facing exactly the following error.
SQLError: 'Error #3115: SQL Error.', details:'no such table: 'categories'', operation:'execute', detailID:'2013'
My SQLite Db has been created using Firefox extension - SQLite Manager. The db file is placed into the same folder as the .fla and .swf files. The db has three tables namely: categories, period and activity. I don't understand why I'm getting this error. I have even tried copy pasting other source code from AS 3.0 reference guide but same error every time.
The code below is a modified version of example code in AS 3.0 reference documentation. Can you suggest how the above error can be fixed?

Can you try creating the table using the AIR ActionScript APIs? It is possible the SQLLite Manager program that you are using is creating a database that isn't compatible with AIR.
