Any sample code will be extra help

Answer 1

A UIAlertView is just a UIView. So you can manually add the buttons to the UIAlertView in a two column configuration. There is an example here that demonstrates adding UITextFields, but I'm sure you can adapt it.

Note that having two many buttons in the UIAlertView might get Apple's back up ;-)

Answer 2

I have done it like this

NSArray *subViewArray = Topicdialog.subviews;
 float y = 60.0f;

 for(int x=2;x<[subViewArray count];x += 2){

  UIView *button = [subViewArray objectAtIndex:x];

  CGRect frame = button.frame;
  frame.size.width = 120.0f;
  frame.size.height = 42.0f;
  frame.origin.x = 20.0f;
  frame.origin.y = y;
  button.frame = frame;

  UIView *button1 = [subViewArray objectAtIndex:x + 1];

  frame = button1.frame;
  frame.size.width = 120.0f;
  frame.size.height = 42.0f;
  frame.origin.x = 152.0f;
  frame.origin.y = y;
  button1.frame = frame;
  y = y + 48.0f;
 }
