Question

I’ve searched and searched but nothing has really worked.

I’m trying to set a textvalue from a text box, into a string or whatever, so that I can call it up later in a different view controller. I can’t seem to get it to work!

I’d also like numbers to be carried over, such like currency’s.

Any ideas on them?

Cheers.

You could make an instance variable on the other view controller retain or copy the value before you push/pop the view. For example:

OpenNextViewController *varNextPageController = [[OpenNextViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@'OpenNextViewController' bundle:nil]; varNextPageController .textString= self.textString; [[self navigationController] pushViewController:varNextPageController animated:YES]; [varNextPageController release]; 

In ‘OpenNextViewController’ in this example have an instance variable ‘textString’ that retains or copies (depending on your needs) your text.
