I'm new to all the part of building applications, so if it requires adding something to Eclipse, I'd love it to be attached also a guide :)

Answer 1

You can try by having a textView where user will make an entry. Below the TextView, you can create a listView where each element in the listview will have a checkbox.

Once user enters something in the textView and presses submit, you can add this entry into an ArrayList which is the adapter for the listview. Then you refresh the listView and this new entry will appear at the bottom.

Answer 2

You can use Android's simple_list_item_multiple_choice like this

ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
                android.R.layout.simple_list_item_multiple_choice, values);

It is very limited in functionality. So if you want to add more customizations to your listView, create a custom listView. Here is a link to a useful complete tutorial on that
