Apps Beginner needing advice on record storing application

[Android_Evan]

Hey guys I'm new to programming for Android and as a project I'm working on an application that keeps logs and records on a specific topic. I've been looking at tutorials on building forms and such and also databases. What I'm wondering is how they would work with each other. I'm assuming I would have to utilize forms to accept user input and provide a certain GUI. From there I'm assuming I would have to use databases to retrieve the info when submitted, and to also repopulate a form when an existing record is retrieved. I'm wondering if I'm on the right path.If there is something I'm missing please let me know. Thanks in advance.
