Only one nib (xib) that was created (MyDocument.xib) when the project was created form the document based app template.

I am looking at the Open as Files Owner ... hmm not sure.

Thanks.

When my document based app starts up the awakeFromNib method in my NSDocument subclass is called.

When I choose Open a new NSDocument is instanced but this does not call awakeFromNib.

Am I missing a setting?

I need awakeFromNib to be called for any instance on my NSDocument sublass.

'[NSDocument awakeFromNib]' is invoked because (or when, if you prefer) the document is File's Owner for the associated nib file. Your symptoms would suggest that it's being set as File's Owner when a File -> New... is done (since that's what you get for free when the application starts up) but not when a File -> Open... is done. Is it possible there are two nib files being used in these two situations?

If you've set the document's window controller as File's Owner, then *it* will get the 'awakeFromNib' instead of the document.

Also, as usual when an application mysteriously fails to do something, it's vital to check the log for exception error messages -- something I typically forget to do.

Does any of that suggest anything helpful?
