Can an Activity be started from within a WidgetAppProvider?

Question

I have a widget that I have an intent that starts an activity when I click, but I need to get saved Data into the widget, so onEnabled can I start an Activity that will look up the saved data for the activity?

Also an intent I need to set up for the click events... how do I set these up with out first having the config show up?

Context.getSharedPreferences( String name, int mode ); 

to get saved prefernces, and by using

    nt[] allids = AppWidgetManager .getInstance(context) .
getAppWidgetIds(new ComponentName(context, AwarenessWidget.class));

to get all the IDS
