Hi everyone, now what i am trying to do is to display the json in android, however i only manage to dump all of them into a  textview. 

I need to place them in viewlist, in such a way that every row consist of example "ib_itemcode1":2131 "transtatuscode":123 "invtid":1231 "descr":123123.

I am still reading up on arrayAdapter however i think the bigger problem is how do i assign the json data into the array adapter.

Anyhow will be very thankful.

Thank you again for helping out!
