We have accessed the actual controls, but lets now set the TextView's contents with whatever is in the EditText.

Hey Zubeyr!

First of all, we should reference the EditText and TextView via their variables on the Code Challenge (Rather than using EditText.< code >, use entryField.< code >) otherwise, Java doesn't know what we're referring to by EditText as, there's no such variable!

After that, be sure to check your code here:

(editText.getText()).toString();
                  ^           ^

You seem to have got your brackets mixed up a bit. Just remember that each method call has two brackets after it (()) and you should be able to see where you've gone wrong.

Hopefully this should help you out but, if you have any more problems, give me a shout and I'll be happy to help :)

wow, this was so easy, just missed out on one simple detail that i figured out thanks to you.. Thanks a lot!

Hi Zubeyr,

EditText entryField = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.entry_field);
TextView textHolder = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.text_holder);
//textView.setText(editText.getText()).toString(); //This is wrong.

You're accessing textView and editText and they don't exist, instead you should use the instances of EditText and TextView that you created. Hint:

textHolder.setText( [get the String of entryField here] );

Hope this helps :)
