How to position the cursor in AutoCompleteTextView

Question

In My app I'm using AutoCompleteTextView. When the user select a result item, one of the option is inserting the selected text into the AutoCompleteTextView. After inserting text, the cursor returns to the initial position. How can i position it in the end of the inserted text? Thanks, Eyal
