Activity 2 should not "launch an intent in order to save results into the main activity". If Activity 2 feels a bit like a dialog box (e.g., "Please pick something out of this list"), have Activity 1 use startActivityForResult() to start up Activity 2, with Activity 2 sending the result back via setResult(), followed by finish(). If Activity 2 is just some other activity (e.g., "Please edit the thing you picked in Activity 1"), then Activity 1 and Activity 2 should be sharing a real data model (database, content provider, etc.). -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android Training...At Your Office: http://commonsware.com/training -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
