Question

I have a database search query which search in the database for a word entered by the user and return a Cursor.

In my ListActivity

Answer 1

I haven't done it but this looks promising:

http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/string-resource.html

public final void setText (CharSequence text)

Since: API Level 1 Sets the string value of the TextView. TextView does not accept HTML-like formatting, which you can do with text strings in XML resource files. To style your strings, attach android.text.style.* objects to a SpannableString, or see the Available Resource Types documentation for an example of setting formatted text in the XML resource file.
