Wow, I'm actually starting to get a handle on this stuff :)

But so many questions...

First thing: Ideally I'd like my app to be able to choose a data set that it will then open and read. So far I haven't found any file browser/picker class but I'm sure I eventually will and if not I can do that myself.

I'm assuming that it's easy enough to get a file transferred to an iPad/iPhone through iTunes and/or other methods, but what controls where it ends up? How do you get it somewhere where your app can open it?

I hope that's a silly question with a very obvious answer so feel free just to point me at the doc I should have read before asking it.

I saw Bundle Programming Guide but I read that as meaning I'd have to distribute the app with every set of data - which seems inefficient. Obviously this can be done - how else would Pages etc. work?
