title: query a column in an sqlite database with a set of array values
body: <p>i am sorry to ask again since i asked something similar to this earlier, but am in serious need of help here. situation is this, i have an Arraylist with values of strings, which i have converted to an array i want to query a "NAME" column in my sqlite database and return rows that have the string values in the name column. </p>
  
  <p>e.g the `String [] a = {"do this", "do that", "help here"}; but it grows dynamically and can have a lenght with respect to the database column.(i mean it can't grow past the size of the database table.)</p>
  
  <p>how can i construct an sqlite query to return rows that have this string in their array? Am having sqlite error of "incorrect syntax" or "bind or column index out of bounds" when using the suggestions from this post.   </p>
