Xcode Newbie - How to use Xcode Developer Document to find answers

Hello all.

I'm new to software development but have been an avid Apple/Mac user since ... well since the Apple ][ !!

It seems to me that Xcode's built-in documentation probably answers most questions. Except one: How to use it effectively!?

For example, I've created a simple window with a box to enter data into and a button to process that data; if I want to work out how to display a simple dialog box once the data has been processed (i.e. "Are you sure you want to delete this? [Yes] [No]"), how can I look up how to achieve this using the documentation?

In this example, I tried entering 'dialog' in the 'API Search' and the 'Full Text Search' and received a great deal of information but as a beginner, most of it means nothing to me. All I'm after is the coding (presumably only a one-liner).

Can anyone advise how to use the documentation to look up relatively simply stuff like this?

Thank you.

Phil
