Answer 1

There's no automatic way of doing it but it is possible.

You would use the textFieldDidBeginEditing: delegate method of the UITextField to display a UIPickerView to your view. (You could also use textFieldShouldBeginEditing: depending on what you wanted to do.) When a user selected an item in the picker, you would add code to copy the appropriate text to the text field and, presumably, hide or delete the picker. You'd also need to hide or delete the picker when the text field lost focus.
