Are you looking for a substring of a string in an array? Or are you looking for the whole string? I have written a routine to find the substring of a string in an array, if that would help.

Thanks all...

it was a matter of upper/lowercase.

Well, can you insert a toLowerString() while creating the array? if not, you must iterate over the array and check each element after use toLowerCase().

for exaple:

NSArray first, second

for(int i = 0; i < first.count(); i++)
{
   String elemFirst = (String)first.objectAtIndex(i);
   for(int j = 0 ; j < second.count(); j++)
   {
      String elemSecond = (String)second.objectAtIndex(j);
      if(elemFirst.equalsIgnoreCase(elemSecond))
      {
         //Do what you need to do
      }
   }
}

That and make sure you aren't using "contains(Object element)" as that is not the same as "containsObject(Object object)". This bit me a couple times before I quit making that mistake - usually in the wee hours of the morning.

Yap. containsObject compares objects using equals(), so it should work for Strings. If you are not finding the string with this, it's because it's not on the array. :) Maybe you need to trim() some white spaces?
