I have a UITableView how do I “GET” the text from the UITableViewCell

Question

I'm developing an iPhone app and have a cell object.

UITableViewCell *cell = [myTableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath];

But how do I GET the text from that cell?

Answer 1

If it's a cell that was created with one of the system cell types, it has a UILabel * member called textLabel . If you've created a custom cell type, you should set the tag property of the relevant view (in IB or in code), then retrieve it using the viewWithTag: method on your cell.
