Thank for any and all help you can provide. Chris

Answer 1

First, get the text from your two text views and store them into NSStrings, then use the setSubject method of the MFMailComposeViewController. i.e.

NSString *text1 = textView.text;
NSString *text2 = textView2.text;
MFMailComposeViewController *controller = [[MFMailComposeViewController alloc] init];
NSString *subject = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@ %@", text1, text2];
[controller setSubject:subject];
// Display the controller.
