listview

Hey all,

I have an ArrayAdapter powering a ListView. I would like to change the data behind the ArrayAdapter and update the ListView's. Sounds like notifyDataSetChanged(); would be exactly what I am looking for, but it updates the entire ListView, and I would prefer to update on a row-by-row basis.

Is there a way to do this with ArrayAdapter, or do I need to manage my data some other way if I want this functionality?
