tableview scrollview - iphone

Question

I want to make a UITableView, which has many columns, so the whole cell can't display the all data, and the first column shows titles, this row can't move flatly, but other rows can move flatly.
I tried adding UITableView to UIScrollView, but failed
Is there any ways to achieve this requirement?

You need to make a custom TableViewCell to achieve this properly.
EDIT:
A quick example:
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#interface MultiColumnTableViewCell : UITableViewCell
{
UIButton *leftButton;
UIButton *middleButton;
UIButton *rightButton;
}
#property (nonatomic,retain) UIButton *leftButton;
#property (nonatomic,retain) UIButton *middleButton;
#property (nonatomic,retain) UIButton *rightButton;
#end
#import "MultiColumnTableViewCell.h"
#implementation MultiColumnTableViewCell
#synthesize leftButton;
#synthesize middleButton;
#synthesize rightButton;
- (id)initWithStyle:(UITableViewCellStyle)style reuseIdentifier:(NSString *)reuseIdentifier
{
self = [super initWithStyle:style reuseIdentifier:reuseIdentifier];
if (self) {
// Initialization code
leftButton = [[UIButton alloc] init];
[leftButton setTitleColor:[UIColor blackColor] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
leftButton.titleLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
leftButton.titleLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:15.0];
leftButton.titleLabel.numberOfLines = 2;
middleButton = [[UIButton alloc] init];
[middleButton setTitleColor:[UIColor blackColor] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
middleButton.titleLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
middleButton.titleLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:15.0];
middleButton.titleLabel.numberOfLines = 2;
rightButton = [[UIButton alloc] init];
[rightButton setTitleColor:[UIColor blackColor] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
rightButton.titleLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
rightButton.titleLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:15.0];
rightButton.titleLabel.numberOfLines = 2;
}
return self;
}
- (void)setSelected:(BOOL)selected animated:(BOOL)animated
{
[super setSelected:selected animated:animated];
// Configure the view for the selected state
}
#end
Quick usage in tableview:
- (MultiColumnTableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"Cell";
MultiColumnTableViewCell *cell = (MultiColumnTableViewCell*) [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[MultiColumnTableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
}
// Set up the cell...
float tableviewWidth = self.myTableView.frame.size.width/3;
int irow = indexPath.row;
NSString *cellValue = myString;
cell.leftButton.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, tableviewWidth, 64.0);
cell.leftButton.tag = someTag;
[cell.leftButton setTitle:cellValue forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[cell.leftButton addTarget:self action:#selector(someAction:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[cell addSubview:cell.leftButton];
cellValue = someOtherString;
cell.middleButton.frame = CGRectMake(tableviewWidth, 0, tableviewWidth, 64.0);
cell.middleButton.tag = someOtherTag;
[cell.middleButton setTitle:cellValue forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[cell.middleButton addTarget:self action:#selector(someOtherAction:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[cell addSubview:cell.middleButton];
cellValue = yetAnotherString
cell.rightButton.frame = CGRectMake(tableviewWidth*2, 0, tableviewWidth, 64.0);
cell.rightButton.tag = yetAnotherTag;
[cell.rightButton setTitle:cellValue forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[cell.rightButton addTarget:self action:#selector(yetAnotherAction:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[cell addSubview:cell.rightButton];
return cell;
}
