OK, I'll take your word for it that it works. That is what I wanted to know, is it possible. I had tried subclassing NSManagedObject and putting regular instance variables in as you you indicated, but I get a similar error with the regular instance bindings when both the core data attributes and regular instances are bound. Something about not being able to get a Boolean from a class for the checkbox column. For a regular instance NSString the actual string doesn't show, but some sort of a descriptor for it is displayed instead. I'll dig at it some more, must have something not right. But now I know it is not wasted effort._______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
