There is something very strange going on that nabble.com has full content but the email does not; compare:

Not System.Strings, but Java.Lang.Strings, so you need: foreach (Genre genre in genres) { using (var group = new JavaDictionary<string, object>()) { group[name] = new Java.Lang.String (genre.Name); group[id] = new Java.Lang.Integer(genre.Id); // may or may not be necessary... groupData.Add (group); } } Or, looking at the original message: var settings_data = new JavaList<IDictionary<string, object>>(); sa = Resources.ObtainTypedArray(Resource.Array.settings_text); sa_icons = Resources.ObtainTypedArray(Resource.Array.settings_icons); for (int i = 0; i < sa.Length(); i++) { using (var item = new JavaDictionary<string, object>()) { item["text"] = new Java.Lang.String (sa.GetString(i)); item["icon"] = new Java.Lang.Integer (sa_icons.GetResourceId(i, 0)); settings_data.Add(item); } } this.ListAdapter = new SimpleAdapter(this, settings_data, Resource.Layout.list_item_icon_text, new String[] { "text", "icon" }, new int[] { Resource.Id.text, Resource.Id.icon }); - Jon _______________________________________________ Monodroid mailing list Monodroid@lists.ximian.com UNSUBSCRIBE INFORMATION: http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/monodroid
