I am still in my 1st year of learning so bear with me.

I finally got this part of my program working, but I am not sure why.
I have a method which creates a small report in a NSString* which is later 
shown in a window.  


I do something like this:

    NSString* rpt =  @"#session( \r";

and then multiple lines of the sort:

    rpt = [rpt stringByAppendingString : objectString];
where objectString is built up in a similar way to make an report record.


finally I return rpt.

Others have pointed you to the docs on memory management in Cocoa...

I want to point out that the above may be better done by using an NSMutableString if you are building a string in steps and parts.
