copied!<p>Thanks to Rog I was able to wrap my head around this problem and come up with a solution. It's not as clean as I would want it so if anyone has a better approach I would love to hear about it.</p> <p>Based on what I have learned (I could be wrong, please let me know) you can only name sections (sectionNameKeyPath) by the property in which you are ordering your table. In my case, I wanted to sort my table using a property called displayOrder, but I didn't want my sections titles to be 0, 1, 2, etc. Instead I wanted the section titles to use the title property "Name1", "Name2", etc. that corresponds to the displayOrder. To do this I determine the header title based on the displayOrder in titleForHeaderInSection:</p> <pre><code> NSString *displayOrder = [sectionInfo name]; NSFetchRequest *fetchRequest = [[NSFetchRequest alloc] init]; [fetchRequest setEntity:[NSEntityDescription entityForName:@"Platform" inManagedObjectContext:managedObjectContext]]; NSNumberFormatter * numberFormatter = [[NSNumberFormatter alloc] init]; [numberFormatter setNumberStyle:NSNumberFormatterNoStyle]; NSPredicate *predicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"displayOrder == %@", [numberFormatter numberFromString:displayOrder]]; [fetchRequest setPredicate:predicate]; Platform *platform; NSError *error = nil; NSArray *fetchResults = [managedObjectContext executeFetchRequest:fetchRequest error:&error]; if ([fetchResults count] > 0) { platform = [fetchResults objectAtIndex:0]; headerView.titleLabel.text = [platform name]; } else { headerView.titleLabel.text = @"Unknown"; } [numberFormatter release]; [fetchRequest release]; </code></pre> <p>Thanks Rog!</p>
