I doubt an article from 2007 is going to help ....anyway maybe I can be more specific ...I need to add the following code to the code listed above .When the code below is finished and the counter reads "DONE" i`d like to also add an action that will bring up a dialog box with a button ..that button will bring me back to the main menu

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.CountDownTimer;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class Countdown extends Activity {
TextView timeDisplay;

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
timeDisplay = new TextView(this);
this.setContentView(timeDisplay);
MyCount counter = new MyCount(30000, 1000);
counter.start();
}

public class MyCount extends CountDownTimer {
public MyCount(long millisInFuture, long countDownInterval) {
super(millisInFuture, countDownInterval);
}

public void onFinish() {
timeDisplay.setText("Done!");
}

public void onTick(long millisUntilFinished) {
timeDisplay.setText("Left: " + millisUntilFinished / 1000);
}
}
}
