Sqlite – Adobe Air/Flex + SQLite database problem

I'm still a newbie to Adobe Air/Flex, and still fairly new with SQL.

I've downloaded this (http://coenraets.org/blog/2008/11/using-the-sqlite-database-access-api-in-air…-part-1/) code and have been looking over it and I'm trying to implement the same idea.

I think it's just something stupid. I'm using Flex Builder. I made a new desktop application project, didn't import anything.

I added a DataGrid object and bound it to an ArrayCollection:

I'm trying to make it so when the program initializes it will load data from a database if it exists, otherwise it'll create a new one.

The problem is, when the application runs, the datagrid is empty. No column headers, no data, nothing. I've tried changing a whole bunch of stuff, I've used the debugger to make sure all the functions are being called like they're supposed to. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I've compared my code to the before mentioned code, I've looked for tutorials on Google. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
