Thanks Bill and Graham.
D'oh! I've got dozens of stringWithFormat calls in my main app and
this never occurred to me. I was thinking that somehow an NSTextField
would take a number and convert it itself.
This will let me merge all three components of the time into one
string with separator colons and the whole shebang.
I was looking to use NSDate to get an "hh:mm:ss" result that allowed
hours > 24, but I do not think that is possible, so I went the
NSCalendarDate route. I remember having the same problem in
AppleScript with the time portion of a date.
Thanks a bunch for taking time to clue me in.

I still have to do the crazy

To get a string from an int for the textField to bind to. If I bind
it
to the model deadline.hours, which is a scalar int, it displays zero
while NSLog is merrily displaying 23 from the same variable.
Is converting the int to a NSNumber and then to a string make sense
here? Seems roundabout.
Look at the reference documentation for +[NSString
stringWithFormat:], and
the String Programming Guide for Cocoa (particularly the Formatting
String
Objects and String Format Specifiers sections).
