Manage 10-15 columns on a single screen (Android App)

Question

Just wondering if we can do something like this using android code (native app) or even a better method to handle multiple columns on a single screen. I have searched a lot but all I find is done through CSS & JS rather than android code

<LinearLayout orientation="horizontal">
    <LinearLayout orientation="vertical>
        <!-- first column fixed -->
    </LinearLayout>
    <HorizontalScrollView>
        <LinearLayout orientation="horizontal">
            <LinearLayout orientation="vertical>
                <!-- second column -->
            </LinearLayout>
            <LinearLayout orientation="vertical>
                <!-- third column -->
            </LinearLayout>
            <!-- etc -->
        </LinearLayout>
    </HorizontalScrollView>
</LinearLayout>

You get the gist.

Why don't you try to do this with HorizontalScrollView and items in it that are single columns (each column could be a single LinearLayout with other views in it)?

I tried doing that but there are 2 issues. Firstly left header also moves. Secondly each individual row scrolls rather than the table as a whole – Haseeb Jadoon May 19 '15 at 18:52
I mean one HorizontalScrollView with many elements, not a single scroll view for every column – Gabriella Angelova May 19 '15 at 19:00
