If so, you shouldn't do that. The controller is a controller -- it shouldn't become part of your model. You should therefore be able to modify the array contents much as you would have before, modulo you'll probably have to use indexed accessor methods to add/remove objects from the array (see archives).

Hmmm. I wouldn't say that the Controller is part of my model, but now I can send messages to the ArrayController telling it to add or remove guide objects in the array, where as before I was sending all this stuff to the array directly.

That's still a valid thing to do.

So, then, I need to maintain an NSMutableArray in my model as before and programatically link it to the NSArrayController I've instantiated in IB, or instantiate my NSMutableArray in IB and connect the content outlet of my NSArrayController to the NSMutableArray?

Maintain the NSMutableArray as before, and bind the array controller's content array to that array.

I suppose if I can get my head straight as to the way I can get these things connected to each other, I'm home free.
Hmmm...a little bit of knowledge. I'll have to think about this one some more.

There are a number of examples at:
<http://homepage.mac.com/mmalc/CocoaExamples/controllers.html>
that may help clarify.
