Hey John,

It wasn't just that I didn't get the results I wanted, but unfortunately I allowed time machine to overwrite the .nib file. It was an error message about the nib being unreadable in some way when I open it.

I would also like to report that I solved my problem with some help.

You are not supposed to use a data source if you want to auto compleate to occur from the content of a binding. All I had to do was check auto complete and not check use data source and bind the content value to my array controller and it worked.

Thats a cool feature built in for free.

Adam

Hey Adam -

When you say the NIB file was corrupted, I bet you mean that it wasn't producing the results you wanted, as opposed to the file on disk being unreadable by Interface Builder. Is that the case? If so, do you have an suggestions for how you would have liked Interface Builder to help you diagnose the inadvertent changes that were made to your document? If Interface Builder indeed corrupted your file in the sense that it wasn't readable by Interface Builder, could you please file a bug <http://bugreport.apple.com/> so that we can fix the issue as soon as possible?

Good Luck -
Jon Hess



I have an NSComboBox column in a table view. The column's value binding is connected to a "url" property in an array controller and works just fine. In the attribute tab of the inspector for the NSComboBox cell I clicked on "Autocompletes" and "Uses Data Source". The I added an additional binding to the cell and the NSCombobox autocompleted from any value that had been entered into the ArrayController previously. It was impressive, jump out of my seat magic. I can not make it happen again.

I feel like Sean Connery in Medicine Man
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0104839/

I know I have a complicated, multi layered situation here. I guess a more generic question could be: if I set an NSCombCon to "Autocompletes" and "Uses Data Source", what binding do I set up to feed the datasource?

Any help with this would be appreciated,
Adam
