Search Field MenuItem Enabling

I'm having trouble getting a menu item in my search field's menu to enable. I set an outlet in a controller to point to this specific menu item. When the search field is added to the toolbar, I set the target and action to the controller. Now from what I've read, as long as the target is not nil and the action is implemented, the menu item should be enabled, but it's always disabled. I originally tried setting the target/action in the nib, but it didn't work and then I went this route. I've stepped through with the debugger and when it sets the target and action, the menu item is definitely not nil, so I'm not sending messages to the middle of nowhere and thinking it's working, it actually isn't.

Does anyone have any ideas? Is there perhaps an example of adding a menu item to a search field's menu somewhere?


Thanks,

Seth Willits
