final EditText input = new EditText(TabsActivity.this);
InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
imm.showSoftInput(input, InputMethodManager.SHOW_IMPLICIT);

input.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_TEXT | InputType.TYPE_CLASS_TEXT);
builder.setView(input);
// Set up the buttons
builder.setPositiveButton("OK", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {

TablesFragment.Check_Items = ConnectionClass.Ret_dt("Select * From ChecksItems Where Check_ID = 0");
if (!TablesFragment.Check_Items.containsKey("Change_Temp")) {
if (TablesFragment.Check_Items.size() > 0) {
ArrayList<Object> Valrows = new ArrayList<Object>();
if (TablesFragment.Check_Items.get("Item_ID").size() > 0) {
for (int i = 0; i < TablesFragment.Check_Items.get("Item_ID").size(); i++) {
Valrows.add("");
}
}
TablesFragment.Check_Items.put("Change_Temp", Valrows);
}
}
if (Integer.parseInt(Cover_check) > 0) {
String st = ConnectionClass.Ret_Col("Select Max (CheckSerail) AS Ser From Checks_V where Officer = 0 AND OutLet_ID = " + ConnectionClass.OutletID + " And Rest_ID_Active = " + ConnectionClass.Rest_ID);
if (st.trim() == "")
st = "0";
int Check_Serial = Integer.parseInt(st) + 1;
long Check_ID = Long.parseLong(ConnectionClass.SelectNewIDCheck());
st = "insert into Checks .......
}
}
