Close. There are actually two layouts you provide: one for the activity, and one for the rows. The one for the activity needs to have a ListView with the android:id of "list". You connect this layout to the activity via setContentView(), like you would for any other activity. The constructor of the Adapter you use with your ListView will take the R.layout name of a second layout, this one for the rows. You are also welcome to override getView() on the Adapter, which will ignore the second layout and allow you to construct the rows by whatever means you see fit (manual constructors, ViewInflate, etc.). Later this month, I'll be writing up a tutorial on AndroidGuys about all this. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ -- Available Now! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
