How to scroll to specific Cell (determined by its label) in UITableView

Question

i wanted to know if its possible to scroll to a specific Cell (determined by the Cell's label and not by the cell's rowindex) in an UITableView?

I need this cause my data is loaded on the fly and i don't know the cell's row index.

For example: I have a UITableView with a variable amount of rows and in each row there is a label for a name. Now i want to scroll to a specific name, but have the problem that I don't know the rowindex for this.

Is there any solution?

Thx in advance!

Search in your data sourceArray for the name, get the index of the object and construct the index path.

 [NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:yourRow inSection:yourSection];

If you have multiple sections you also have to find the section.
