Hi there,

You've got the name of the resource mixed up with the content of the resource.

strings.xml 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <string name="morePuppies">See More Puppies</string>
</resources>

The string "See More Puppies" is used by the app and called into use in code with the resource name, like a variable name, of morePuppies. (With the appropriate accessor like R.string) Make sense?

Steve.
