I did but it wasn't very helpful. I have just this minute solved it though

I needed something like


EditText et = new EditText(v.getContext());









Thanks

    I thought it was something like TextView tv = new TextView(null); to start 
with but that crashes.


  Well... did you look at the error you get when it crashes?  I'm guessing that 
you can't pass in null for a context...
