Parsing any kind of data and displaying it properly is a great way to boost your programming skills.

On the iPhone there are many options for parsing, but first you have to load your file:

NSString *filePath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] 
                                 pathForResource:@"MyFile" ofType:@"txt"];  
NSData *myData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:filePath];  
if (myData) {  
    // do something useful  
}

Once you have that working, you can get to parsing the file. I love using Xpath, it makes finding the elements you need and storing/displaying/manipulating becomes dead easy. There are some great libraries and frameworks for using Xpath.

My personal favorite is XpathQuery.

By the sound of things, you're going to be reading a simple file and displaying things in a pretty normal fashion. The following will work:

#import "XpathQuery"

NSArray *queryResult =  PerformXMLXPathQuery(myData, @"/aNode");

myTextField.text = [[queryResult objectAtIndex:0] objectForKey:@"nodeContent"];
