Query switching between activities

[GMC]

Hi Guys

I have tried searching this one but havent come across anything. Im creating some basic apps to familirise myself with the IDE. At present ive created a main screen with two buttons. Upon clicking one of the buttons it should open a new activity for me.

Code in Home Screen

Sub btnadd_click
startactivity("Add")
End Sub

Then in the new activity like the Home I called
Sub Activity_create
activity.loadlayout("Add")
End Sub

Im getting a java error each time i click the button indicating

"java.io.filenotfoundexception: add.bal"

I cant seem to locate a file by that name in my project however i can see Add.bas. Have i missed something simple here or am i getting an error as its looking for the wrong file extension???

Any help appreicated

Add.bal is the basic for android layout file.

If you havent created it using the Designer then you will need to create a layout and save it as Add.bal
The layout contains all the views (buttons etc).

Have a look at some examples in the Beginners Guide:http://www.b4x.com/android/files/guide.zip
Also, for multiple activities, here is another example: http://www.b4x.com/forum/basic4andr...ls/6611-two-activities-example.html#post38609

Nice One

As so that was it mate id created the activity within the Main Code IDE however i hadnt actually accessed the designer for the two new activities id created. Once i accessed and added the title everything worked fine.

Cheers guys i went through the guide originally i must have forgot you need to make a change in the designer.
