Thanks about the memory leaks and about the allocating memory and stuff. And I thought that might be my problem but I am not sure how to actually use that method. The documentation was very vague in my opinion.

"For a long time it puzzled me how something so expensive, so leading edge, could be so useless, and then it occurred to me that a computer is a stupid machine with the ability to do incredibly smart things, while computer programmers are smart people with the ability to do incredibly stupid things. They are, in short, a perfect match." - Bill Bryson

Here you're over-retaining an NSArray. This won't do anything if you're using GC, but if you're not, then you've created a memory leak.

        NSString *string;
        string = [NSString init];

Never initialize a variable without allocating it memory first.

        string = @"Main Category";

Here you've overwritten a variable you just (incorrectly) initialized. If all you want is a string, then you can do this:

NSString *string = @"Main Category";

The NSTableView is not being populated at all... No rows, and nothing else....


Did you remember to set the table view's data source?
