`nope its not working`. That does not bring you/us further. You are supposed to show the used code and tell the errors you got at compile time or run time. Now you let us guess. Please first tell where you need help. — greenapps, Nov 25 '14 at 10:51

I see no question. And you are not telling WHEN/WHERE you want to get them. Do we have to guess? — greenapps, Nov 25 '14 at 10:54

First you have to initialize EditText in onCreate() and set or change value at positive button clicked :

Example :

    protected CharSequence[] _options = {"Mercury", "Venus", "Earth", "Mars", "Jupiter", "Saturn", "Uranus", "Neptune"};
    protected boolean[] _selections = new boolean[_options.length];

    protected Button _optionsButton;
    protected EditText inputTemp;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
        inputTemp = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.edittexts);
        _optionsButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button);
        _optionsButton.setOnClickListener(new ButtonClickHandler());
    }

    public class ButtonClickHandler implements View.OnClickListener {
        public void onClick(View view) {
            showDialog(0);
        }
    }

    @Override
    protected Dialog onCreateDialog(int id) {
        return
                new AlertDialog.Builder(this)
                        .setTitle("Planets")
                        .setMultiChoiceItems(_options, _selections, new DialogSelectionClickHandler())
                        .setPositiveButton("OK", new DialogButtonClickHandler())
                        .create();
    }

    public class DialogSelectionClickHandler implements DialogInterface.OnMultiChoiceClickListener {
        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int clicked, boolean selected) {
            Log.i("ME", _options[clicked] + " selected: " + selected);
        }
    }


    public class DialogButtonClickHandler implements DialogInterface.OnClickListener {
        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int clicked) {
            switch (clicked) {
                case DialogInterface.BUTTON_POSITIVE:
                    inputTemp.setText("");
                    for (int i = 0; i < _options.length; i++) {
                        if(_selections[i]){
                            if(inputTemp.getText().toString().length()>0){
                                inputTemp.setText(inputTemp.getText().toString().trim()+","+_options[i]);
                            }else{
                                inputTemp.setText(_options[i]);
                            }
                        }

                    }
                    break;
            }
        }
    }

i already upvote it and in you code EditText initialization and set dialog selected value code is wrong. — Haresh Chhelana, Nov 25 '14 at 14:09
