Are you getting any error message upon building the project?
Try to launch the simulator via Spotlight, just type "iPhone Simulator".

By writing "iphone simulator" in spotlight, no good document comes up.
I want to create simple application that runs on iphone simulator
Do we have any documentation for this??
Please provide and help

Amita,
By typing "iPhone Simulator" in Spotlight, the simulator should be launched in case it is installed (and it should be since you have installed Xcode).
Try to google the web for iPhone tutorials or get a book.

iPhone simulator is included in Xcode, I don't know what is going wrong with your installation.
Sorry.

Xcode is bundled with "Mac OS X SDK" and "iPhone SDK".
Did you checked the iPhone SDK during installation?

Yes I inspected during installation. In "Installation Type" stage there was no option of "iPhone sdk" to check.
I think here lies the problem.
Am I right??

You need to download the iPhone SDK version of XCode - the one you have is the 'normal' Mac OS version.

The latest version is: xcode_3.2.3_and_ios_sdk_4.0.1.dmg
