<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:paddingLeft="16dp"
    android:paddingRight="16dp">

    <EditText
        android:id="@+id/editTextName"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" >

  </LinearLayout>

and fomTwo.xml :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:paddingLeft="16dp"
    android:paddingRight="16dp">

    <Button
            android:id="@+id/buttonSave"
            android:layout_width="120dp"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="@string/btSave" />

  </LinearLayout>

and i have two activity, the name is FormOne.java and FormTwo.java

FormOne.java :

public class FormOne extends Activity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.formOne);
            EditText etName = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editTextName);
}

}

and FormTwo.java :

public class FormTwo extends Activity implements OnClickListener {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.formTwo);

    EditText etName = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editTextName);

    Button btSave = (Button) findViewById(R.id.buttonSave);
    btSimpan.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

        public void onClick(View v) {
            if (etName.getText().length() != 0) {
                Toast.makeText(FormTwo.this, "Name is : "+etName.getText().toString(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
            else {
                Toast.makeText(FormTwo.this, "Input the name please", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        }
    });
}

i want to catch value from editTextName, and value can show in FormTwo.java with Toast.

but myapplication force close,
how i can to get value editTextName, without passing data with bundle. because in FormOne.java not any button to send value editTextName.

Thanks in Advance

Save edittext value into sharedpreferences on ontextchangelistener() event of edittext and get data from sharedpreferences into form2 activity.
