Hi Anna, You can have any view inside your list-items.
Create a ListView with an Adapter (BaseAdapter or any other type of Adapter). The Adapter has 4 elements; your four tasks. Then override the Adapter's getView(...) method. Based upon the 'position' (from the parameters of getView(....)), you can return a View that is as complex as you want. You can use 'inflate' this view from XML or create the entire view programatically. Look at the API Demos for list-view for sample code. This complex view is selectable, since it is a list-item.
