Error switching views in AppDelegate - objective-c

Question

I am making a iPhone app with a login feature. After they login, I have it write to a database. When the user opens the app, I want it to check whether or not to go to the app or show a UIView for them to login. I have some code, but it crashes. Here it is:
- (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(UIApplication *)application {
sleep(5);
// Configure and show the window
[window addSubview:[navigationController view]];
[window makeKeyAndVisible];
//[application setStatusBarStyle:UIStatusBarStyleBlackOpaque];
int checkLoginCount = 0;
NSArray *checkLoginInfo = [database executeQuery:#"SELECT * FROM login WHERE id != '' or email != '' or password != ''"];
for (NSDictionary *checkLoginRow in checkLoginInfo) {
checkLoginCount++;
}
NSLog(#"alsdfjaldfksjalsdfjkas %d", checkLoginCount);
if (checkLoginCount == 0) {
SplashPageViewController *screentwo = [[SplashPageViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"splashPage" bundle:nil];
//NSLog(#"aldjksflasdfjadksaldfjsaldksfj %#", screentwo);
screentwo.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyleCoverVertical;
[self presentModalViewController:screentwo animated:NO];
[screentwo release];
} else {
splashView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,0, 320, 480)];
splashView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"Default.png"];
[window addSubview:splashView];
[window bringSubviewToFront:splashView];
[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:nil];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:0.5];
[UIView setAnimationTransition:UIViewAnimationTransitionNone forView:window cache:YES];
[UIView setAnimationDelegate:self];
[UIView setAnimationDidStopSelector:#selector(startupAnimationDone:finished:context:)];
splashView.alpha = 0.0;
//splashView.frame = CGRectMake(-60, -60, 440, 600);
[UIView commitAnimations];
}
}
And here's the error:
-[TableViewAppDelegate presentModalViewController:animated:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x4e3e860

Maybe I can't do that action in that method. Who knows. Any help is appreciated! Coulton!

First of all sleep(5); is a bad idea, you should avoid using sleep on the main thread (and better don't use it anywhere).
Seems that you have all your code in one file (main app delegate) and it also is a tableview delegate? Thats why you have so messy code, try to divide logic in two groups.
For example, you can show your modal views with the help of navigation controller:
[[self navigationController] presentModalViewController:modalViewController animated:YES];
and dismiss it using
[self.navigationController dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
In iOS, you can display views modally by presenting the controller for the modal view from your current view controller. So you have get any view controller loaded before.
