How would I save and load a UITextField?

Question

I have searched everywhere and tried lots of code but nothing seems to be working for me. All I need to do is to load (on viewDidLoad) a text field and save it when a button is

Using an SQLite database:

-(IBAction) checkNotes{

sqlite3_stmt *statement;

const char *dbpath = [databasePath UTF8String];

if (sqlite3_open(dbpath, &contactDB) == SQLITE_OK)
{
    NSString *querySQL = [NSString stringWithFormat: @"SELECT Notes FROM NotesTable WHERE UserID = (\"%@\")", userID.text]; 

    const char *query_stmt = [querySQL UTF8String];

    sqlite3_prepare_v2(contactDB, query_stmt, -1, &statement, NULL);

    if (sqlite3_step(statement) == SQLITE_ROW) {

        NSString *notesField = [[NSString alloc] initWithUTF8String:(const char *) sqlite3_column_text(statement, 0)];

        Notes.text = notesField;

        [notesField release];

    }else{
        Status.text = @"Not found";

    }

    sqlite3_finalize(statement);
}
sqlite3_close(contactDB);    

}

You can play around a little bit and adapt this code to your needs. For implementing SQLite3, check the net. But it will help you much in the future I guess. I think it would be the most flexible, because it will also allow you to create relational databases.
