I want to have a NSOutlineview on the left side of my window with three

!Year Quarter Class ! !

! hr1 ! !
! hr2 ! !
.

.

(This is a proto-type grading app that I am going to use as a base for
syncing
some stuff to/from my admin system at my wife's school).

What I want to do is have the view area marked with the X change
depending on what is clicked on in the outline view. I.E., if a "year"
field is clicked on, I want a tab view with the ability to put in some
comments, etc.
If a quarter is clicked, I want a tab view that allows the setup of
assignments,
or schedule for attendence. The actuall class would contain a tabview
for grade/attendence/reports, etc.

I would _like_ to use IB for this, but I can't seem to make a NIB that
starts at something "lower" than a full window. Does anyone have any
tips for me on this?


What do you mean "lower" than a full window?? You can drag a custom view
from the palette into the document window and use that. Is that what you
mean??

Mmmm, but that only gives me _one_ view to use. I need to create a
set of "detached" custom views that I can someone make active in the
space to the right of the outline view. I was hoping there was a way
in IB to make a set of NIBs, one for each column that can be clicked
in, but I don't want the item to be a window (just a custom view).

Does that make sense?

BTW, I think I can see how to do this without using NIBs, but they do
seem to be the safest way to go, at least for someone starting out like
me!
