    <p>Right now my dates look like this:<code>`2011-01-01 5:45:23 +0000</code></p> <p>I want them to look like this: <code>2011-01-01 00:00:00 +0000</code> (notice how everything is 00 beside the date, month, and year).</p> <p>I have an array of NSdates which is fetched from this code:</p> <pre><code>NSFetchRequest *request = [[NSFetchRequest alloc] init]; NSEntityDescription *entity = [NSEntityDescription entityForName:@"Session" inManagedObjectContext:self.managedObjectContext]; [request setEntity:entity]; [request setResultType:NSDictionaryResultType]; [request setReturnsDistinctResults:YES]; //set to YES if you only want unique values of the property [request setPropertiesToFetch :[NSArray arrayWithObject:@"timeStamp"]]; //name(s) of properties you want to fetch NSError *error; NSArray *objects = [managedObjectContext executeFetchRequest:request error:&amp;error]; NSArray *data = [objects valueForKey:@"timeStamp"]; NSLog(@"The content of data is%@", data); </code></pre> <p>I want to remove daylight savings and have 0:00:00 for the time aspect of each date, thus I need this NSDateFormatter method:</p> <pre><code>NSDateFormatter* formatter = [[[NSDateFormatter alloc] init] autorelease]; [formatter setDateFormat:@"YYYY-MM-dd HH:mm:ss"]; // e.g., set for mysql date strings [formatter setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone timeZoneWithAbbreviation:@"GMT"]]; NSString* mysqlGMTString = [formatter stringFromDate:[NSDate date]]; </code></pre> <p>So how can I combine the two to work together?</p>

    2. COMeaning I want to apply that date formatter to the dates in the data array, then create a new array with the updated dates without daylight savings time. Basically I want the dates to have 00:00:00 for hour, minute, and second component.

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.
