You can certainly bind any number of UI objects to a single property of an object.
Specifying an IBOutlet is only necessary if you want to create a connection and can only be connected to one thing at a time. Simply specify a property and bind the NSTextFields to that.
@interface MyClass
{
}
@property (nonatomic, retain) NSString *aTextValue;
@end
@implementation MyClass
@synthesize aTextValue;
@end
With the later versions of the compiler, you don't even need to specify an ivar, it will be created for you.
