Mark, Thanks for the reply but No Dice....
When I change the $ to a . I get a ClassNotFoundException. As far as . being the separator, I am aware of that but the Dev Guide was very clear about using the $: Taken directly from http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/custom-components.html: <view class="com.android.notepad.NoteEditor$MyEditText" id="@+id/note" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:background="@android:drawable/empty" android:padding="10dip" android:scrollbars="vertical" android:fadingEdge="vertical" /> The custom component is created as a generic view in the XML, and the class is specified using the full package. Note also that the inner class we defined is referenced using the NoteEditor$MyEditText notation which is a standard way to refer to inner classes in the Java programming language.
