You actually want to use initialFirstResponder here. You can wire up the window's initialFirstResponder outlet in IB to your text field, and it will do the right thing. In the general case (where you want to set first responder sometime *after* window loading) use -[NSWindow makeFirstRepsonder:]. http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Cocoa/Reference/ApplicationKit/Classes/NSWindow_Class/Reference/Reference.html --Kyle Sluder _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
