Yep, using "Value Changed" it invokes the action for both switch transitions. I can just look at [sender state] and tell what's going on. Cool.

This has nothing to do with being a newbie - it's a matter of character and determination. You could have selected the UIButton within the UIBarButtonItem; you just didn't try hard enough. If you had, repeated clicking and playing around would have led you to the truth. Similarly, to discover what event is appropriate for a UISwitch, try different events and see. m.

Heh, this is kinda what I'm afraid of doing - screwing around with stuff and getting things to work, but not in the Cocoa Way.™  I guess there's a bit of intimidation to it so I try to follow where its leading me and not force it. But I suppose you're right, success awaits those who go where angels fear to tread (or whatever that saying is!)
