Can I Update the string message of a ProgressDialog?

Question

I set up a progressdialog in an Android AsyncTak and it works.

My question is it possible to update in the onProgressUpdate method of the AsyncTask the string that the ProgressDialog displays. I would like to update the string with a publishProgress call to show progress of the task.

I can update the string if instead of the progressDialog I have my own textview. The progressDialog looks better and has the spinning wheel.

Yes you can. Simply call myProgressDialog.setMessage("My New Message"); in onProgressUpdate method
