Android sqlite database - where do i start as the

Question

Ive tried to hunt down the tutorial for notepad on android developers but it appears to of gone offline with the recent change.

What i need is a database thats created by the user using 3-4 edittext boxes and 2 date boxes and to store as 1 file i can look back on..

but i have no idea where to start with databases..

ive read tutorials on how to make one but i cant work out what needs to change on the coding of the database for my needs,

i created one that generates a random word i set out of 5 words when i click an add button but that doesnt tell me what i need to do in order to get the information from my text input boxes and date pickers and display them in a listview..

Any help on this will be great.

ps. not looking for people to do it for me im looking to learn about databases.

I hate to answer with just a link, but that's pretty much what is required (I'm not going to post a whole tutorial as an answer :p).

A good tutorial on databases is here
