Try this.
Dialog d = new AlertDialog.Builder(Buddies.this,AlertDialog.THEME_HOLO_LIGHT) .setTitle("Create New") .setNegativeButton("Cancel", null) .setItems(new String[]{"Document", "SpreadSheet","",""}, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener(){ @Override public void onClick(DialogInterface dlg, int position) { if ( position == 0 ) { } else if(position == 1){ } else if(position == 2){ } } }) .create(); d.show();
