How can I select multiple rows in UITableView

Question

Hi

I want to display some selected contacts in a list and then I need a feature to select multiple contacts at a time and then on clicking a button it should trigger an email to the selected contacts.

For this I am using UITableView to display the contacts but I am not able to find any way to unable the multiple selection for UITableView. On doing some google search I found that UITableView does not support multiple selection.

Is there any way to select multiple rows in UITableView or which control should I use for this purpose.

Thanks in advance.

If you want to use or are allowed to use undocumented classes, check out http://www.iphonedevwiki.net/index.php?title=UITableView - it looks a ton more native.
