copied!<p>If all you have is 4 objects, don't bother looping you can simply -</p> <p>If you have a sub class of Customers you can use:</p> <pre><code> newCustomer.contactName = [importArray objectAtIndex:0];//change it to the correct index, and correct property name newCustomer.phone = [importArray objectAtIndex:1]; //....And so on </code></pre> <p>else you will need to use</p> <pre><code> [newCustomer objectForKey:@"contactName"] = [importArray objectAtIndex:0]; </code></pre> <p><strong>BUT</strong></p> <p>If you have many properties in your CSV you can set an other array of the keys in your entity and -</p> <pre><code> for(NSUInteger i=0;i<[importArray count];i++){ [newCustomer objectForKey:[keysArry objectAtIndex:i]] = [importArray objectAtIndex:i]; } </code></pre> <p><strong>Better sometimes</strong></p> <p>A better way to handle this, ecpaciely if you have many properties is to use -</p> <pre><code> //1. crate a dictionary from your CSV with keys that are similar to your entity property names.
