So, are you wondering how to change the text inside the button, or when you click the button not only does it change the color of the text, but that it also changes the view over to the the view with the label in it?

Okay, so this is what you need to do. In your UICustomObject ( the solid yellow one ) you need to add in another IBOutlet of the type UITabBarController. Once you have done that your code in your UICustomObject should look something like this.

 
- (IBAction)buttonWasPressed {
text.textColor = [UIColor redColor];

tabBarController.selectedIndex = 1

The selectedIndex protocol there changes which is the selected item in the tab bar controller. The first item in your tab bar is 0 the second one is 1 (and so on and so forth).

This help?

No problem.

If you go on over to Xcode and then to help, and then to documentation it has all the class references that you will need, or if your documentation isn't updated you can go online to apples site and go to the iphone section of the site, and somewhere in there they have the documentation I believe.
