You bind the value of the column to a property, and then the column loops N times, where N is the number of rows, setting the cell's value and then drawing the cell in each row. It's non-obvious until you really understand how the view/cell dichotomy works. > Is this the best approach? Is there some other preferred approach to this > common problem? I'm hesitant to suggest this because it seems like bad form (reminds me of the magic \t character in Windows menus that separates the menu item name from its accelerator key) but you could probably use a custom cell and override its -setObjectValue: method to parse your string and then call -setTitle: as appropriate. --Kyle Sluder _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
