You basically need a context to create and possibly a layout to add
TextView tv = new TextView(mContext);//context can be an activity or u can
use getBaseContext();
tv.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(50,60));//set some height and width and
it can be wrap_content or fill_parent
tv.setText("hello Android");
layout.add(tv);//this can be any layout if you have linearlayout in ur xml
file then
//find it by LinearLayout
layout=(LinearLayout)findViewById(R.id.main);
You can do this in onclick event or a menu event upto you.
This should work in general , you can play around with it.
