How do I make the ScopeBar appear when someone clicks in the search field of UISearchBar on iphone

Question

I would like to make the ScopeBar appear when a user clicks on the search field of the UISearchBar just like the email search bar works. I can have the scope bar always on or always off but can't seem to control its display when a user clicks on the search bar. I have used [searchBar setShowsScopeBar:YES] and it does change the property correctly but how do I then display it?

Thanks

Easy fix. You can do it all in Interface Builder. I used a 'Search Bar and Search Display Controller' instead of a 'Search Bar' and unchecked the 'Shows Scope Bar' in Interface Builder. When a user clicks on the Search Field now the Scope Bar Displays.
