    <p>Hi Guys I created some EditTexts dynamically from a JSON with a default value.</p> <p>After entering some values to the EditTexts I accessed them using the <strong>getChildAt()</strong> method of the root view. When using the <strong>getText()</strong> method of the EditText it returned the default value, not the changed value. I could not even set the text of the EditText through code.</p> <p>This is my method for creating the EditText.</p> <pre><code>private static EditText createEditText(final Context context, Element element) { final EditText editText = new EditText(context); editText.setId(Integer.parseInt(element.getFieldID())); editText.setText(element.getCellValue()); editText.setTag(element); editText.setOnEditorActionListener(new TextView.OnEditorActionListener() { public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) { if (event != null &amp;&amp; (event.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_ENTER)) { InputMethodManager inputMethodManager = (InputMethodManager) context .getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE); inputMethodManager.hideSoftInputFromWindow( editText.getApplicationWindowToken(), InputMethodManager.HIDE_NOT_ALWAYS); } return false; } }); return editText; } </code></pre> <p>And this is how I access the EditTexts after changing the text.</p> <pre><code>public static boolean updateElements(ScrollView rootView) { try { for (int i = 0; i &lt; rootView.getChildCount(); i++) { View view = rootView.getChildAt(i); if (view.getClass() == LinearLayout.class) { LinearLayout layout = (LinearLayout) view; for (int x = 0; x &lt; layout.getChildCount(); x++) { View linearView = layout.getChildAt(x); if (linearView.getClass() == EditText.class) { EditText txtBox = (EditText) linearView; txtBox.setText("TextBox " + x); } } } } } return true; } catch (Exception ex) { ex.printStackTrace(); return false; } } </code></pre> <p>Please tell me what I'm doing wrong here... Thank You.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
