to exist in Xcode.



This seems to be your problem, try:

<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/WebObjects/Web_Applications/ EnterpriseObjectsApp/index.html>

It's newer and although designed for Project Builder you should be able to make the transition to Xcode fairly easily.

Also get the latest version of Openbase if you are running Panther:

<http://www.openbase.com/beta/OpenBase8.0_MacOSX.dmg>

You may need to register for a new free "Innovator" license to get it to work with WebO.

As far as learning WebO, I started with the Apple Tutorial like the one mentioned above, and then moved to "WebObjects Application Construction Kit" by George Ruzek (no longer in print) and learned a lot from "Professional WebObjects 5.0 with Java" by Termini etal. I own all of the WebO books and have skimmed them all but use none of them very much. I get a lot more from the API references and from examining source code (Project Wonder is a great place to start). And of course this and other list archives are invaluable.

My real learning started when I signed my first client contract and had to deliver something : )
