Thanks for that. It simply never occurred to me to pass "sender". What a dope. In addition to the caveat you mention, passing sender also gives me the potential to haul other elements out of contextInfo if required. Cheers.

It's generally a bad idea to assume that an int can be represented by
a pointer or vice-versa. Your code will work on OSX as it currently
stands, but your code is brittle with respect to changes in the sizes
of types. Why not do something like:

- (IBAction)deleteSelection:(id)sender
{
NSString *warningText = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"Delete %@?",
[sender title]];

NSBeginAlertSheet(warningText, @"Cancel", @"Delete", nil, [skJournal
mainWindow], self,
@selector(didEndDeleteSheet:returnCode:contextInfo:), NULL, sender,
@"This action cannot be undone.", nil);
}

- (void)didEndDeleteSheet:(NSWindow *)sheet returnCode:(int)returnCode
contextInfo:(void *)contextInfo
{
int theTag = [(id)contextInfo tag];

< ...etc >
}
