Hi in gosport, welcome aboard! It looks like you don't have the Eclipse / Android environement setup properly. Do this, forget about YOUR app for a minute and watch the video in your control panel about getting Eclipse / Android setup to build a super simple demo app. See if you can do this. If you can get through this, the errors you posted will go away. If you cannot, you won't be able to do anything with your project source-code.

Hi mate I posted in another post a short guide for the Windows/Eclipe process here: http://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=D180365945466D0313020DA Don't forget when installed JDK, Android SDK, Eclipse & keytool, you then have to open Android SDK and AVD Manager & download & install additional packages If you need any help, am also in Gosport :-)

How big is Gosport? Where the heck is it? Sounds like I need to pay a visit and do a mobile-app-dev seminar...who's in?
