Building An Interactive Story App. Stage 2 Challenge 3.

use the buttonLabel variable to set the text for loadPuppiesButton instead of the current hard-coded String.

CodeChallenge.java 
Button loadPuppiesButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.puppiesButton);
String buttonLabel = getString(R.string.morePuppies);
loadPuppiesButton.setText(buttonLabel);
strings.xml 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <string name="morePuppies">See More Puppies</string>
</resources>

That looks correct - what problem is it giving you?

My code:

Button loadPuppiesButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.puppiesButton);
String buttonLabel = getString(R.string.morePuppies);
loadPuppiesButton.setText(buttonLabel);
