Based on what you and others have posted for this thread, my gut feeling is that your layout is hiding the TextView somehow. This could be a colour problem (black text on black background) or a layout problem where it's squashed or covered by another component.
Try this: add android:text="Here i am" to your TextView tag and see if it shows up without programatically setting a value on it. If it does, then you have another problem, but if you can't see it, you have a layout/colour problem. - Brill Pappin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
