show data in UITableView on tapping UITextField

How to get data in UITableview instead of tapping on keyboard UITextfield. In UITableview, how to do multiple selection of data.
Edited:- I have a UITextfield. On tapping it, tableview should pop up with data in it instead of keyboard. When a row of tableview is selected, then checkmark should appear and that data should be seen in UITextfield.

Answer of your first question -

Your keyboard will hide by using this code.

-(BOOL)textField:(UITextField *)textField shouldChangeTextInRange:(NSRange)range replacementText:(NSString *)text {

    if([text isEqualToString:@"\n"]) {
       [textField resignFirstResponder];
       return NO;
    }
return YES;
}

- (void)textFieldDidBeginEditing:(UITextField *)textField{

     [self.view endEditing:YES];
     // load your tableView here.
     // Everything must be custom.that is your table view is just like a popup.
}

Answer of your second question -

Now current scenario is your table view is shown on screen.

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    NSString *selectedValue = [yourArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
    yourTextView.text = selectedValue;
    yourTableView.hide = YES;
}

Here after selecting any row that value is shown in yourTextView.but after that you have to hide that tableView. Try this.May this will help you.

-(void)textViewDidBeginEditing:(UITextView *)textView  
{

 [self.view endEditing:YES]; // this will make key board hide   
 yourTableView.hide = NO;  // here show tableview make sure tableview allocated out side and here you will be just showing.  
}


-(void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath     
{  
yourTextView.text = yourArray[indexPath.row];  
yourTableView.hide = YES;  
}
