So recently purchased an apple developer's IOS program and downloaded XCODE. I have an idea for an app and want to build it. But I have no idea how to use XCODE and I tried reading the manuals and I am still confused. I want to have a calender in the app and when you click on a certain date a menu appears below giving information about that date. How do I go about doing this? Thanks for all your help!
How do I start!
You should at least learn the basics of the tools so you don't risk not understanding detailed replies, etc. One way to do that is to work thru this Getting Startedlist, asking specific questions as you better understand, etc.
As for calendars, see:
Introduction to Calendars and Reminders
...and perhaps the sample app here: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/samplecode/NavBar/Introduction/Intro.html
#### Extended Navigation Bar ####
This example demonstrates placing a custom view underneath the navigation bar in such a manner that view appears to be part of the navigation bar itself. This technique may be used to create an interface similar to the iOS Calendar app.
Good luck.

You must have more attention to detail, to develop. Why are you spelling Xcode in all caps? Chill out!
Personally, I like Ray Wenderlich's video tutorials.
Before purchasing the program you shoud already have a decent understanding, just a personal opinion. If you don't know how to use Xcode you'll need to read/watch a lot of tutorials to get started. I would go on YouTube and search for Xcode 6 tutorials.
Best of luck.
