Android Drop Down List is Empty When using a String Array from values file
<p>In my main activity in the onCreate method I am trying to add a string array from the R.array file to an array adapter.  When i go to launch the app the drop down box is empty.  If I manually create a String array via code the drop down is fully populated.  Here is the code below.</p>

<pre><code>ArrayAdapter&lt;String&gt; dateAdapter = new ArrayAdapter&lt;String&gt;(
            this, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, R.array.reminderDays);
    dateAdapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);        
    dateRangeSpinner.setAdapter(dateAdapter);
    dateRangeSpinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(new MyOnItemSelectedListener());
</code></pre>
