public class Main extends Activity implements OnClickListener{

TextView textview_countries;

private String[] countries_list={"Philippines","Japan","Australia"};
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main);

    textview_countries=(TextView) findViewById(R.id.txtview_countries);
    textview_countries.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_NULL); //To hide the softkeyboard

OnClick TextViewI took the AlertDailog field, consisting of MydataAdapterwhich I passed txt_show.setText(Arraylistdata[which].toString())to show inTextView

Follow this code:

txt_show.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        public void onClick(View v){
            new AlertDialog.Builder(MyActivity.this)
                    .setTitle("Select More Categories")
                    .setAdapter(MydataAdapter, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {

                        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
                            txt_show.setText(Arraylistdata[which].toString());

                            dialog.dismiss();
                        }
                    }).create().show();
        }
        });
