If you're looking for a great book to get you started, I highly
recommend "Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X" by Aaron Hillegasse.
That's how I got started, recently.

Hi all,
I'm working on my first Cocoa application (I'm a longtime PC
developer,
doing my first Mac app for a client), and I'm really confused. I've
gone
through the currency converter tutorial, but making the next leap
from there
to the app I need to write is proving challenging. Specifically where
I'm
having trouble at the moment is that my app has two NSComboBox
controls and
the values in the second are dependant on the values in the first.
I'm not
quite understanding where/how to populate the first NSComboBox, nor
where/how to change the list values of the second box when the
selected item
in the first one changes.
More generally, I'm not sure I have a really good idea of where
things live
in a Cocoa application -- what gets called when the app initializes,
how
exactly to connect the UI to my code, and how to do things at various
points
in the application's lifetime (such as doing initial setup stuff when
the
app first starts). Can someone help point me in the right direction
for my
specific question and/or point me to something that explains in
slightly
more general terms than the Currency Converter tutorial how a Cocoa
app goes
together and how the UI and code are connected to one another?
Thanks in advance!
Tamars
