And now that we know what your problem is... you just need to use the normal layout mechanism of the view hierarchy -- stick your content in a layout manager, which will be resized to adjust for the IME when it is displayed (if you allow it to do so).
Also please read my article on interacting with IMEs, which describes how to tell the system to resize your window rather than pan it: http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2009/04/updating-applications-for-on-screen.html And a general suggestion: if you want to avoid discouraging people from helping you in the future, I suggest dropping the attitude and understanding the people generally ask questions because you haven't provided enough information for them to know what they need to answer.
