CheckedTextView set to checked oncreate in listview?

Question

I am trying to make a shoppinglist, where the CheckedTextView is checked if you have already picked your item previously ie the item has a boolean set to true if picked.

I have overriden the getview method to change the CheckedTextView text with setText() and that works but setting the setChecked(true) method in CheckedTextView doesnt not make it checked.

I know that I am not recycling any views in getview(), that will be a later project in the project, right know I need to see a green checkmark =)

Any thoughts? please help.

my xml files:

test.xml

 <CheckedTextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/text1" 
    android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
    android:layout_height="?android:attr/listPreferredItemHeight" 
    android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" 
    android:gravity="center_vertical" 
    android:checkMark="?android:attr/textCheckMark" 
    android:paddingLeft="5dip" 
    android:paddingRight="50dip" 
    android:textColor="#000000" 
    android:background="#ffffff"
    android:tag="text1"
    android:text="testtestetstt"
    android:focusable="false"/>

If you are going to use setChoiceMode(ListView.CHOICE_MODE_MULTIPLE);, you need to use the setSelection() method on ListView to indicate which get checked, not handle that yourself during row binding.
