64,262 PointsHello shiva,
The hard coded string they're referring to is the "LOAD". They want you to replace that String with the variable referencing the strings.XML file's morePuppies String, as below.
Button loadPuppiesButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.puppiesButton);
String buttonLabel = getString(R.string.morePuppies);
loadPuppiesButton.setText("LOAD");
Your XML file should look as follows.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<string name="morePuppies">See More Puppies</string>
</resources>
Please let me know if you have any other questions about why that works!
