How to make iPhone phone numbers available?

Question

I have some phone numbers in UILabel in different UITableView cells.

I also have phone numbers under the subtitle MKnnotations in my MapViews.

How can I make these phone numbers interactive so that they launch the phone application on the iPhone and dial the number?

Only UITextViewprocesses it automatically.

Everything else will require that you make the call yourself (for example, answering a press):

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"tel:15415551234"]];
