OK, but I need to know the old value. It's a token that I run through my strings table to get the new value to set (so we only need one nib). If I can't retrieve the value I'm really stuck.

Ugh. But if I mouse over it, Accessibility Inspector shows me the value I set from the nib and can't access from the code.
Where does that value live? How can I get at it from the code? I feel like I'm missing something fundamental here.
- (BOOL)accessibilitySetOverrideValue:(id)value forAttribute:(NSString *)attribute;
Attributes created/modified this way are sort of snuck in and are only available through the AX calls - i.e. the API used by assistive apps.
If you need to modify the value programatically, you can call accessibilitySetOverrideValue.
