Is it possible to change the Iphone’s core preferences with an app?

@Russell: You can read preferences from pretty much any file. So place that line of code where you need the value.

Just wondering what file do I place the following in
NSString *prefkey = [userDefaults stringForKey:@"prefkey"];

I have entered the code as your instructions above and all i get is an error: “initializer element is not constant”

Any clues?

@Bryan: Unfortunately there is no way to launch the Settings app from within your own app.

Nick:
Is there some easy way to have a “Settings” button link to our new settings bundle in the iPhone settings app?

Hey Gabe,
You just need to declare that variable. Example:
NSString *prefkey = [userDefaults stringForKey:@"prefkey"];

It says the delayBeforeDialing is undeclared for the second line of code you provided.
