Contact Phone Number Reading Error From Contact Picker

Question

I am trying contact screen and when user pick contact from there it's name and phone number will display in Toast message in onActivityResult screen. The problem is that when I pick the contact it's name is displaying in the toast when I am trying to display number error occurring:

java.lang.illegalStateException:Couldn't read row 0,col -1 from CursorWindow.Make sure the Cursor is initialized correctly before accessing data from it.

Here is my code of onActivityResult

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) { 
    if(resultCode==Activity.RESULT_OK){
        switch(requestCode){
        case 1:
            Cursor c=managedQuery(data.getData(), null, null, null, null);              
            if(c.moveToFirst()){
                try{
                String name=c.getString(c.getColumnIndex(People.NAME));
                String no=c.getString(c.getColumnIndex(People.NUMBER));
                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), no, 1).show();
                }
                catch(Exception e){
                    Log.v("error", e.toString());
                }
            }
            break;
        }           
    }
}

getColumnIndex() returns -1 if the column does not exist, please show how you get the data in the other Activity — Mohamed_AbdAllah, Jun 12 '13 at 08:37

                    if(hasPhone.equalsIgnoreCase("1")){
