just had another surprise: i inserted NSLogs into the method that initializes 
the array and into -numberOfItemsInComboBox, trying to see the contents of my 
array and find out why -numberOfItemsInComboBox returns zero. the surprise was 
that -numberOfItemsInComboBox is called BEFORE the method that initializes the 
array. then i commented the line that sends -selectItemAtIndex to the combobox, 
and the combobox worked normally. 

now the question is, why is -numberOfItemsInComboBox called first when the 
first call in awakeFromNib is to the initialisation method? weird...

-awakeFromNib {
        init array;
        [combobox selectItemAtIndex:0];   // if this line is turned into a 
comment, it works normally.
        [combobox2 selectItemAtIndex:2];
        [combobox3 selectItemAtIndex:0];
        register for notifications from combobox;
}

not exactly objective-c, but i think you get the 
idea._______________________________________________
