when I set a text in an Edittext I do so.

EditText edit = new EditText(this);
edit.setId(0+4);
edit.setText("Meu Texto");

But I would like to set the text by id because in my case I have several editText called "Edit". They have the same name, but different ids. Is that possible? Thanks in advance.
