Android Question ListView...not anything else

[67biscuits]

I am looking for a tutorial specific to the ListView1 control. Not any other type of list viewing device. I am cutting my teeth in this arena and want to learn all the basics.
Thanks

Thanks all, feeling fully ridiculed now.
I did manage to suss it out for myself in the end by using the IDE context info. And yes, I fully understand it's limitations and all the reasons for not wanting to use it. But for my purposes to display list contents without a convoluted setup, I now understand arrays and lists far better than I did two days ago.
Now, I am ready to dig deeper into CustomListView.
