I see you're using two ListViews at one time... Out of curiosity, are you controlling them both with the same ListActivity?
I would recommend pursuing my method as it cuts down on resource use-- displaying and managing one ListView with a header will be lighter than two entirely separate ListViews. Just because it works doesn't mean it's the best approach. Header views is the way stock Android apps [built by Googlers] achieve this effect... I'd follow suit. -Nick On Apr 6, 3:04 pm, Simon Donovan <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Nick, > > Thanks for replying. I managed to figure it out.
