Yeah, well, I figured I'd cover all the bases... Besides, I was guessing that the only reason you put it in the list in the first place was to have it available to you in the callbacks. > I'm not quite sure how you're handling a double-click (double-clicks > aren't that common in Androidland, AFAIK), > > I'm not handling it; I just double-click in the emulator and it Just > Works. Maybe the second click is ignored? I'll test it tomorrow.

Because if you *don't* have _id in the Cursor you feed to the SimpleCursorAdapter, the adapter gets cranky and raises errors. > If I change my > SimpleCursorAdapter to, oh, I don't know, an ArrayAdapter, do I have to > change the parameters in my OnClickItemList? I'm not sure what the callbacks get for "long id" from ArrayAdapter. What has also worked for me is to simply re-point the Cursor (using movetoPosition()) to the row indicated by the position parameter. Then, you can grab whatever data you need. I don't know if this works by design or if future editions of Android will assume the Cursor is untouched and my changing the position will screw things up. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ Version 2.0 Published! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
