NSTableView inherits from NSControl, which has methods -tag and - setTag. I would suggest assigning a different tag value to each instance of your NSTableView subclass (you'd do that in your subclass' initializer or -awakeFromNib method) and use the -tag method to identify the instance when you need to do so.

That's perfect.  Thanks!

You're welcome. It's my impression that tags are generally under- utilized, though very useful.

It's also possible to set the tag in IB (it's on the Attributes Inspector palette, in the "control" tab). Since I'm not creating any dynamically, I can do that.

It's funny... I fired up IB and created a fake app to check if it was possible to set the tag through IB before I replied to your first message but, in my haste, missed it so I thought you'd have to do it in code.
