    <p>Spent about a week using stackoverflows search but no luck...</p> <p>Here is what I have:</p> <p>1 plist:</p> <pre><code>&lt;plist version="1.0"&gt; &lt;array&gt; &lt;dict&gt; &lt;key&gt;name&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt;Name 1&lt;/string&gt; &lt;key&gt;abrev&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt;(HGB, ΗbA)&lt;/string&gt; &lt;key&gt;picture&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt;first.png&lt;/string&gt; &lt;key&gt;pictureHeight&lt;/key&gt; &lt;integer&gt;1686&lt;/integer&gt; &lt;/dict&gt; &lt;dict&gt; &lt;key&gt;name&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt;Name 2&lt;/string&gt; &lt;key&gt;abrev&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt; &lt;/string&gt; &lt;key&gt;picture&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt;second.png&lt;/string&gt; &lt;key&gt;pictureHeight&lt;/key&gt; &lt;string&gt;396&lt;/string&gt; &lt;/dict&gt; &lt;dict&gt; ... &lt;dict&gt; &lt;/array&gt; &lt;/plist&gt; </code></pre> <p>The questions is:<br> How to return values for keys "picture" and "pictureHeight"<br> knowing the value for the key "name".</p> <p>I tried something like this, but failed desperately...</p> <pre><code>//creating an array that contains the plist dictArray = [[NSArray alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"table1" ofType:@"plist"]]; //creating an array that contains only the vlaues for key "name" NSMutableArray *temp = [dictArray valueForKey:@"name"]; //searchedData - an NSMutableArray containing the "name" values that //the user searched using the searchbar for (i=0; i&lt;[searchedData count]; ++i) { if ([searchedData containsObject:[temp objectAtIndex:i]]) { [temp removeObjectAtIndex:i]; } } </code></pre> <p>At the end I have an array of values for key "name" and I need to get the "picture" and "pictureHeight" to push all of this information to next view controller...</p> <p>I'm looking for any fresh ideas (or maybe tutorials), because I'm not getting too far with mine...</p>

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.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
