Hi Murphy, Thanks for your reply.
The scenario is that i am modifying the home screen in android and adding some buttons to it. When i click on any one button on the home screen,an appwidget has to be started in the available screen space. Can appwidgets be started by broadcasting or passing an intent from another application. If so how can that be done...
