If you mean Round Rect as oval then try this

If you created the text field by interface builder and set property of border as roundrect in inspector window.

No i am actually using a tableview and creating the textboxes via code without IB . .

I think you can use only the inbuilt border style.

I just now saw some 15 screen shots of that app where text field is roundrect and search bar is oval.
