The combination of using notifications and invalidating the view works
just as I desired.
Thankyou for you help.

I think in order for this to work you have to makesure you have a
key/value compliant getter & setter for the boolean value and then in
the code you have to use
[someObject setValue: ForKey:];
This will then notify any observers (i.e your array controller) that
the value has changed and update it

this at all possible ?

You can do this quite easily ... just set the entity type as data, and
then leave the archiver as default. Then when you want to use the
array you just have to cast it into the correct type, and CoreData
will handle the unarchiving for you i.e
NSArray *myArray = [myManagedObject valueForKey:arrayK
Hi,

I didn't notice that in the documentation ... but must admit with
hindsight that I've spent more time looking in NSCell's documentations
when I should have been looking at NSTableViews.
Just checked in the online docs and this looks exactly what I'm after,

Hi,
I have subclassed NSCell and implemented only the following method ...
- (void)drawWithFrame:(NSRect)cellFrame inView:(NSView *)controlView
{
NSImage *separator = [NSImage imageNamed:@"Separator.png"];
[separator setScalesWhenResized:YES];
[separator setFlipped:YES];
NSZeroRect
operation:NSCompositeSourceOver

Turns out the image was being drawn for each row, on in the same place
each time. Doh!
