Okay. I'll do it. But what is the simplest way to put stuff in a tab. A view
for example. Apples IB example is rather confusing and there is no
explanation of what you need to just display tab contents. Is there another
example somewhere that's better? Something that I import the header and set
a few parameters, or something like that. I just find Apple's has to much
code and not enough explanation.
Thanks everyone, this list has been very valuable, Alan
