I have an external Plist file and some images. If I have copied manually using an Xcode, I can read the values inside my Application. It will be available in the Bundle.

but I cannot do it manually every time, so I am looking forward to finding any ways to add the files /copy the files to the bundle, so I can able to read the Values inside the application.

if anybody knows about this, please share with me the steps to overcome this problem.

What I usually do in such situations is to put the data in a directory and then add it to Xcode as a folder reference rather than a group. You can then modify the contents of the directory as you see fit and Xcode will embed the whole thing into your final app.
