Hi Mark, I owe you one after today haha. So in order to keep it all together in the same activity I would just create a separate Layout in my XML file and give it an ID I can pass to the TabHost? And then since its all in the same activity I can use onTabChanged() to run any updates to my database/adapters/cursors?
