Another thought. How are you copying and pasting from A to B ?
I was able to do it using this snippet.

CharSequence c = ((EditText)v).getText();
edittext2.setText(c);

Hi Balwinder,

That is pretty much what I'm doing. I'm running 1.6. I guess it's
working for me as well that way, but why do I have to hit the back
button on the emulator for the text to be copied? On a real device
this would be kind of frustrating.

hmm..I don't know what is going in your environment. For me (using SDK
1.5) Your code as is,  works too. When I hit  the back button on the
emulator,  the virtual keyboard exits, HELLO gets copied to the
