The other suggestions given in this post are better than your original concept for several reasons. For one thing a View is a heavy weight object for keeping in memory just to accomplish inter-Activity communication. In general you want to update the Model, not the View. When the Activity is re-started again it can update the View. For another thing, depending on the launchMode, you might have more than one instance of the this Activity (and thus its View). > > Thanks, > > Tobiah -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
