Hi, You should not be doing this.
You would probably want to handle everything related to UI from the Activity class itself. You start a background activity in a thread, and show the progress dialog. Then when the background thread exits, you dismis the progress dialog from the activity class itself. Have a look at Romain's Painless threading post in Android Blogs. http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2009/05/painless-threading.html Thanks, Kumar Bibek http://tech-droid.blogspot.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
