Manick, Specify your question what you want to do? you have a edittext and a button and webservice data. When you type in edittext and click on button no of webservice data should be listed as per user inputs. OR anything else. Try this

Ok Let’s see!

First you have to download KSOAP Library for your project from here a lightweight and efficient SOAP client library for the Android platform. Add this library to your project. Following code will help you –

private Button button1;
private EditText editText1;

public void onClick(Bundle b){
    ........//type your other code here

    editText1 = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText1);        
    button1 = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.button1);
    button.setOnClickListener(this);

    ........//type your other code here
}

@Override
public void onClick(){
    SoapObject soapResponseObject = getSOAPResponse(editText1.getText());
    String result= soapResponseObject.getProperty(0).toString();
    //use result to into your code to your own way
    Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), result, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}

//getSOAPResponse() method returns SOAP Response 
public SoapObject getSOAPResponse(String search){
    SoapObject soapObject = new SoapObject("http://www.webservicex.net", "GetBibleWordsbyKeyWord");
    soapObject.addProperty("BibleWords", search);
    SoapSerializationEnvelope envelope = new SoapSerializationEnvelope(SoapEnvelope.VER12);
    envelope.dotNet = true;
    envelope.setOutputSoapObject(soapObject);
    HttpTransportSE androidHttpTransport = new HttpTransportSE("http://www.webservicex.net/BibleWebservice.asmx?");
    try {
    androidHttpTransport.call("http://www.webserviceX.NET/GetBibleWordsbyKeyWord", envelope);//call the eb service Method
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    return (SoapObject) envelope.response();
}

Hope this will help you. Fun!
