Android Question Best possible code to..?

yes.. true.. thats what i finally did...

the REASON im doing this is because i want to check if a particular string exists in one of the items of the listview...
that's because unlike List or Spinner ... Listview doesn't have an IndexOf method. .. right?

is there anyway else i could check for a string value in a Lisview.. besides a regular Loop.. like how IndexOf can be done for the others? ?

How are you adding the items to the ListView? You can also add the items to a List and then search the list instead of ListView.
