Seems you are looking for a UITextField with a custom keyboard and show cursor when you press any aphabet. If that is correct...... First Create the class CustomKeyboard : UIView and add buttons/layout the view. Second for your textfield just set the inputView property to an instance of the class CustomKeyboard textField.inputView = customKeyboard;. Third You'll need to set the inputView property to be readwrite as well @property (readwrite, retain) UIView *inputView; By setting the inputView property, the standard iPhone keyboards will not appear when the textfield becomes first responder.

This way you will get what you are looking for....

You can implement Custom Views for Data Input on iOS. Basically you can define a custom keyboard with your own characters and it will wirk the same as the default keyboards.
