HOW TO CREATE ROUNDED TEXT BOXES---

Try this...

Create an XML file in your drawables directory called "rounded_edges.xml" and paste this into it:

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
	<solid android:color="#FFFFFF"/>
	<corners android:radius="5px"/>
	<padding android:left="0dp" android:top="0dp" android:right="0dp" android:bottom="0dp" /> 
</shape>

Inside the layout you're using for your Activity, use this:

Code:
		<LinearLayout
			android:orientation="vertical"
			android:layout_width="wrap_content"
			android:layout_height="wrap_content"
			android:background="@drawable/rounded_edges"
			>
			<TextView 
				android:id="@+id/mytext"
				android:layout_width="200dip"
				android:layout_height="wrap_content"
				android:text="blah blah blah blah"
				android:padding="6dip"
				android:textColor="#000000" />
		</LinearLayout>
		
You may need to do some tweaking. Hell, you may even be able to discard the LinearLayout and 
set the android:background of the TextView to @drawable/rounded_edges.
