Table view not get displayed in android

Im a newbie to android and with the help of some experts i write some code for displaying texts tableview in android.

Here is compiling without any errors but the app is not launching and the message "Unfortunately stopped working" error is showing.

HellotableActivity.java
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;

public class HelloTableLayoutActivity extends Activity {
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
    }
}

main.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:stretchColumns="1" >

    <TableRow>
        <TextView
            android:layout_column="1"
            android:text="@string/Open..."
            android:padding="3dip" />
        <TextView
            android:text="@string/sujiO"
            android:gravity="right"
            android:padding="3dip" />
    </TableRow>

    <TableRow>
        <TextView
            android:layout_column="1"
            android:text="@string/Save..."
            android:padding="3dip" />
        <TextView
            android:text="@string/CtrlS"
            android:gravity="right"
            android:padding="3dip" />
    </TableRow>

</LinearLayout>

strings.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <string name="hello">Hello World, HelloTableLayoutActivity!</string>
    <string name="app_name">HelloTableLayout</string>
    <string name="Open...">HelloTableLayout</string>
    <string name="sujiO">HelloTableLayout</string>
    <string name="Save...">HelloTableLayout</string>
    <string name="CtrlS">HelloTableLayout</string>
</resources>

TableRow and TableView don't work in LinearLayout, use TableLayout instead.

See the Table Layout example, which demonstrates very well how to use a TableLayout.

By the way, you cannot use dots in string names. How would you refer them in Java? I think standard is lowercase separated with underscores. (Dev Guide Reference)
