Hi Ray, The Activity and Service classes are subclasses of Context. So you can refer to the Context object by using the "this" object reference in OnCreate() method of you Activity or Service. Also, you would use broadcastIntent() if you want an IntentReceiver in the other application to receive the data, but if you want an Activity in the other application to receive that data you can use startActivity()(with NEW_TASK_LAUNCH flag) instead. In both cases you will make an Intent object and put data in its Extras bundle.
