No, it's an *outlet* to the scroll view. It's not bound at all. Sorry I keep harping about using the correct terminology, but if you don't, you make it so much more difficult to find what you need in the documentation or by searching the Web. if you're fuzzy on the terms, you'll be fuzzy on what's happening.

And you're saying scroll view, but I doubt very much that you are dealing with a scroll view. I suspect you mean a *text view* within a scroll view. If so, you should change the name accordingly.

Why would you?

It's an *outlet*. That means the variable contains a pointer to the object.

It's an *outlet*. I'll keep saying it, in the hope the message gets through. In this context, they're not script handlers -- they're methods of classes or of instances of the classes.
