Isn't the purpose of dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier: of reusing tableview's objects? I've used this in the past and it never failed me. The documentation says "For performance reasons, a table view's data source should generally reuse UITableViewCell objects when it assigns cells to rows in its tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath: method". So, that's what I'm using. Of course, I have 2 different cells for the 2 sections and I can't understand why it doesn't work. Right now, I have 4 cells in section 2 but in the future, I might have dozens of cells representing dozens of entries. I cannot possibly create a different cell for each row, can I?
-Laurent.

When I use a cell from my xib file in Interface Builder and the tableview appears, even though my method tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath: is called 4 times, only the last cell is showing. If I however create the cells programmatically using:

I just tried a few times of dragging a default UITableView cell from the IB's Data Views tab, I don't modify it in any way in IB except to give it a cell identifier and connect it to my tableview controller so it can provide it to its tableview, it just won't work and I get the tableview showing as in the picture above. I want to use a tableview cell in IB because I need to add additional labels to it and don't feel like doing it programmatically.
