cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier] autorelease];
text = [[UITextView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(1, 5, 200, 140)];
text.tag = 1;
UIView *statusView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, 300, 150)];

Use UIButton to create the button and set a action (method) for that will be called when you click on button.
-(void) buttonPressed:(id) sender
{
//First get the cell (We know we have the only one cell).
// Create an NSIndexPath to access the cell from UITableView.
NSIndexPath *myIndexPath = [NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:0 inSection:0];
//Now We can access the cell using UITableView instance.
UITableViewCell *myCell = [myTabelView cellForRowAtIndexPath:myIndexPath];
//Now access the instance of UITextView using viewWithTag property of UIView.
UITextView* myTextView = (UITextView*) [myCell viewWithTag:1];
//Now you could get the text. :)
NSString* myTextViewText = myTextView.text ;
}
