Hey I just wrote something like this I couldn't find any examples either but I can give you some pointers.
Declare your List View Layout <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"; android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:orientation="vertical"> <ImageView android:src="@drawable/groshielogo" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:paddingBottom="20px" android:paddingTop="20px" android:layout_gravity="center" /> <ListView android:id="@+id/lvItems" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:choiceMode="singleChoice" android:focusable="true" android:clickable="true" android:longClickable="true" > </ListView> </LinearLayout> Declare another layout file for the specific rows.in my cae I have a checkbx and two textvies but it should be obvious how to change it just add or remove fields. <TableLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"; android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" > <TableRow android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" > <CheckBox android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:id="@+id/rowItemBought" android:paddingRight="10px" /> <TextView android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:id="@+id/rowItemName" android:paddingRight="10px" /> <TextView android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:id="@+id/rowItemPrice" android:paddingRight="10px" /> </TableRow> </TableLayout> Then if you are trying to get the information out of a custom class say in my case the shopping list class you need to create a custom Array Adapter that will utilize this layout at the bottom you see where I assign the different fields like the 2 textviews and the checkbox to a particular field in the class. package unf.edu.esifall09.team1; import java.util.List; import unf.edu.esifall09.team1.R; import android.content.Context; import android.view.LayoutInflater; import android.view.View; import android.view.ViewGroup; import android.widget.ArrayAdapter; import android.widget.CheckBox; import android.widget.LinearLayout; import android.widget.TextView; public class ShoppingListAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<ShoppingListItems> { int resource; public ShoppingListAdapter(Context context, int resource, List<ShoppingListItems> items) { super(context, resource,items); this.resource=resource; } @Override public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) { LinearLayout shoppingListItemView; ShoppingListItems sli =getItem(position); String prodName =sli.getItemDescription(); double price = sli.getPrice(); boolean purchases = sli.isPurchased(); if(convertView==null) { shoppingListItemView = new LinearLayout(getContext()); String inflater = Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE; LayoutInflater vi; vi = (LayoutInflater)getContext().getSystemService(inflater); vi.inflate(resource, shoppingListItemView, true); } else { shoppingListItemView = (LinearLayout) convertView; } CheckBox chkPurchased = (CheckBox)shoppingListItemView.findViewById(R.id.rowItemBought); TextView itemName =(TextView)shoppingListItemView.findViewById(R.id.rowItemName); TextView itemPrice =(TextView)shoppingListItemView.findViewById(R.id.rowItemPrice); chkPurchased.setChecked(purchases); itemName.setText(prodName); itemPrice.setText(Double.toString(price)); return shoppingListItemView; } } Ofter that is created go to the activity where you will like your ListView Declare your Variables ArrayList<ShoppingListItems> items; ShoppingListAdapter adapter; ListView lv; Then on create set up your list view and your adapters public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); lv=(ListView)findViewById(R.id.lvItems); items= new ArrayList<ShoppingListItems>(); do a loop of some sort to fill in your adapter. Like in my case I read form a Database Cursor itemsCur=productsDb.getAllShoppingListItemsCursor(shoppingListPK); do{ ShoppingListItems sli = new ShoppingListItems(); sli.setItemDescription(itemsCur.getString(2)); sli.setPrice(itemsCur.getDouble(4)); sli.setPurchased((itemsCur.getInt(7))==0?false:true); sli.setQuantity(itemsCur.getDouble(5)); sli.setShoppingListItemPK(itemsCur.getInt(0)); sli.setShoppingListPK(itemsCur.getInt(1)); sli.setStorePK(itemsCur.getInt(6)); sli.setUpc(itemsCur.getString(3)); items.add(sli); }while(itemsCur.moveToNext()); Set the data into your adapter and add to the List View adapter= new ShoppingListAdapter(this, R.layout.shippinglistitem, items); lv.setAdapter(adapter); } That should do it Hopefully it makes sense!
