Adnroid Listview with spinner and a checkbox

Hello guys

I am a newbie to android development. I am trying to create a List which has a spinner, a edit text and a check box. The data for spinner and check box come from data base. I have the following files.

NewTransac class which extends ListActivity

private PayDbAdapter mDbHelper;
private  Spinner paySpinner;
private CheckBox mCheckBox;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
     super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
     setContentView(R.layout.new_transac_listview);
     mDbHelper = new PayDbAdapter(this);
     mDbHelper.open();

     populatedata();
}

private void populatedata() {

    paySpinner = (Spinner)findViewById(R.id.payerspinner);
    mCheckBox = (CheckBox)findViewById(R.id.paidforcheckboxname);

    Cursor mCursor = mDbHelper.fetchAllTransactionValue();
    startManagingCursor(mCursor);

    // Create an array to specify the fields we want to display in the list.
    String[] from = new String[]{PayDbAdapter.KEY_NAME};

    int[] to = new int[]{android.R.id.text1};
    int[] cbto = new int[]{R.id.paidforcheckboxname};

    // Now create a simple cursor adapter and set it to display
    SimpleCursorAdapter adapter =
        new SimpleCursorAdapter(this, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, mCursor, from, to );

    adapter.setDropDownViewResource( android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item );
    paySpinner.setAdapter(adapter);

    SimpleCursorAdapter cbAdapter =
        new SimpleCursorAdapter(this, R.layout.show_new_transac_data, mCursor, from, cbto );
    setListAdapter(cbAdapter);
}

The list view xml

<ListView android:id="@android:id/list"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_weight="1"
    android:drawSelectorOnTop="false"
    android:textSize="14sp"
/>

<TextView android:id="@android:id/empty"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="@string/no_friends"
    android:textSize="14sp"
/>

<Button android:id="@+id/confirmpay" 
    android:text="@string/confirm"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
    android:gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal" 
    android:layout_gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal|center">
</Button>

list view filled xml

<TextView
    style="?android:attr/listSeparatorTextViewStyle"
    android:text="@string/listSeparatorPay"
    android:layout_marginTop="5dip"
    android:layout_marginBottom="5dip"
/>

<Spinner android:id="@+id/payerspinner"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:drawSelectorOnTop="true"
    android:prompt="@string/selectpayer"
/>

<TextView android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
    android:text="@string/paytext"
/>

<EditText android:id="@+id/payamount" 
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
    android:layout_weight="1" 
    android:inputType="text"
/>

<TextView
    style="?android:attr/listSeparatorTextViewStyle"
    android:text="@string/listSeparatorPayedFor"
    android:layout_marginTop="5dip"
    android:layout_marginBottom="5dip"
/>

<CheckBox android:id="@+id/paidforcheckboxname"
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>

<EditText android:id="@+id/paidforamount"
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:inputType="number"
/>

Problem
I get multiple spinners, checkboxes and edittext based on the number of fields in the database. I see that we cannot set the adapter for the checkbox as i set for the spinner. I need to get only one spinner with one edit text and multiple checkboxes(total number of database rows). please help!
