    <p><strong>UPDATE</strong>: As pointed out by @rmaddy, there was a misunderstanding about what <code>visit.olcreatedat</code> was. This first answer is based on the assumption that <code>visit.olcreatedat</code> is an NSDate. For an answer that assumes that <code>visit.olcreatedat</code> is an NSString containing a formatted date, read the second part of this answer.</p> <h1>visit.olcreatedat is an NSDate</h1> <pre><code>- (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; // Alloc the date formatter in a method that gets run only when the controller appears, and not during scroll operations or UI updates. self.outputDateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init]; [self.outputDateFormatter setDateFormat:@"EEEE, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss z"]; } - (UITableViewCell*)tableView:(UITableView*)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath*)indexPath: { // dequeue or create the cell... // ... // ... OLVisit *visit = [self.visits objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]; NSString * strVisitDate = [self.outputDateFormatter stringFromDate:visit.olcreatedat]; // Here you can assign the string to the right UILabel cell.textLabel.text = strVisitDate; return cell; } </code></pre> <h1>visit.olcreatedat is an NSString</h1> <p>Do you want to convert the <code>visit.olcreatedat</code> to the format <strong>EEEE, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss z</strong>? If so, let's go through each step.</p> <p>First, you need to convert the <code>visit.olcreatedat</code> string (stored in <code>strVisitDate</code>) to an actual NSDate object, <code>visitDate</code>. So to make this step work, you need an NSDateFormatter that accepts the <code>visit.olcreatedat</code> format: <strong>yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss z</strong>.</p> <p>Then, you want to convert the obtained <code>visitDate</code> NSDate to the format you like, so you need another NSDateFormatter, with the format <strong>EEEE, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss z</strong>.</p> <pre><code>- (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; // Alloc the date formatter in a method that gets run only when the controller appears, and not during scroll operations or UI updates. self.inputDateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init]; [self.inputDateFormatter setDateFormat:@"yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss z"]; self.outputDateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init]; [self.outputDateFormatter setDateFormat:@"EEEE, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss z"]; } - (UITableViewCell*)tableView:(UITableView*)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath*)indexPath: { // dequeue or create the cell... // ... // ... OLVisit *visit = [self.visits objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]; NSString *strVisitDate = visit.olcreatedat; NSDate *visitDate = [self.inputDateFormatter dateFromString:strVisitDate]; strVisitDate = [self.outputDateFormatter stringFromDate:visitDate]; // Here you can assign the string to the right UILabel cell.textLabel.text = strVisitDate; return cell; } </code></pre>

    1. COExactly what I was trying to do. Thank you so much for all responses.

    2. COJust a side note: avoid to allocate many NSDateFormatter or to change their date format if you need fast responses, since it is an heavy operation to do. If you do that in `tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath:` for example you could have sluggy performances. In that case, use one or more static NSDateFormatter instead, or reuse the same NSDateFormatter stored in a property, as you are doing here.

    3. COthanks for the extra tip. It looks like I am doing it correctly then by setting NSDateFormatter as a property on my ViewController.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
