I have the to-do list working with the database in chapter 6. But I want to extend this for my own app to add some extra columns, some numeric, some strings. Cannot get it to work. Could someone please give me the code to do this, not as part of the Todoitem object but just as some data that I enter through a textedit and want to display later.

can you post you code please for trying to help you?

I understood but before to write more about that , I think the answer at your question is in the first tutorial of notepad of android developers in google web site. check it, if not just write you code for helping you.
