I've got it working now, I used this code to finish it:
FileInputStream fIn = openFileInput("news.txt");
InputStreamReader isr = null;
char[] inputBuffer = new char[255];
String data = null;
try{
isr = new InputStreamReader(fIn);
isr.read(inputBuffer);
data = new String(inputBuffer);
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Settings
read",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Settings not
read",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
finally {
try {
isr.close();
fIn.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
setContentView(R.layout.latestnews);
TextView tv = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.somenews);
tv.setText(data);
Thanks very much for all your help. It is much appreciated.
