Hey Brendan,
Thanks for the idea. This sounds like a useful technique. Could you explain a little further to a new-to-Cocoa programmer how this is done? I suspect other newbie's on the list would benefit. Or if you can point to a doc that says it already that's great as well.

I went and looked at the FileOwner instance in the Nib file and it seems to be NSApplication and I can't seem to add outlets for it in the Classes view. Do I need to subclass NSApplication and then change the FileOwner class attribute to my subclass, and then I can create outlets, or is there a more elegant way.

Thanks in advance,
tyler

NSBundle's -principalClass will probably get you what you want, but the more sane and popular way to do this is to have outlets connected to your File's Owner class and when you load the nib and specify a File's Owner, all those outlets will automatically be connected.
