myXMLReader.parse(myInputSource);

and then call parse on the parser instance i Created. SOm how i get nothing . Works fine if I use a server XML....

Put the xml into /res/raw folder. It looks like openRawResource opens resources from that folder only. You can also try getResources().getXml(com.MYCLass.R.xml.programs); which will return you instance of XML parser.
