Ive been attempting to work out how to take the text from an edittext box and move it into a string array located in strings.xml.

Basically its a user form which the user fills in, onClick it adds the information to the database and is then viewable in a listview. The listview and everything works fine but i cant work out to put in information using edittext boxes.

Any hints or techniques would be very much appreciated.

Thanks

    You want to take user input for an edit text, and put it in strings.xml? You can’t do that. String resources are for static strings, not things that will change at runtime. You should look at other data storage options, like shared preferences. See data storage.
