Android :: Custom Typface In Listview Row Layout

I am running a sqlite query and binding the returned data to a ListAdapter.

I have used the following example

ListActivity | Android Developers

However, having defined a seperate layout for the rows I cannot change the typeface for textview text1 to a custom one from assets

Here is the row layout

CODE:................

Here is the code from the andriod tutorial

CODE:............

We'll define a custom screen layout here (the one shown above), but typically, you could just use the standard ListActivity layout. setContentView(R.layout.custom_list_activity_view) ;

Query for all people contacts using the Contacts.People convenience class. Put a managed wrapper around the retrieved cursor so we don't have to worry about requerying or closing it as the activity changes state.

CODE:................

Now create a new list adapter bound to the cursor. SimpleListAdapter is designed for binding to a Cursor.
CODE:................

Specify the row template to use (here, two columns bound to the two retrieved cursor rows). mCursor, // Pass in the cursor to bind tonew String[]{People.NAME, People.COMPANY}, // Array of cursor columns to bind to. new int[] {android.R.id.text1, android.R.id.text2}); // Parallel array of which template objects to bind to those columns.
