Setting text of currently selected edit text

I have a class with a few EditTexts on it. I want to add text to the EditText that is selected - where the EditText cursor is flashing - from a String variable. What code can I use to tell which EditText is selected and do a setText on THAT EditText?
Is this complicated? Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

I think the key to what I need is a way to tell which EditText is focused. Does anyone know a way to do this?
Thanks.

Hello ramgraph,

I'm not aware of a solution. But a dirty workaround would be to inject some keyEvents.

Thanks for responding, plusminus. Sorry, but after looking over the keyEvent tutorial, I can't figure out how that might help me. Would you be willing to expand on your suggestion a little?
