Ricky D Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Jan 12, 2012 #1 I'd like to know how to open the soft keyboard. This code doesn't open it up til I press on the EditText. tAmount.RequestFocus. the focus goes to the edittext. I'd like to open the keyboard in my program. Any ideas? regards, Ricky
