NSTableView selecting text within a cell

I have an app with a NSTableView where the data is presented to the user.  When the user hits "Find", I'd like to be able to scroll the table view to the visible cell (easy enough) and then select the range that matched within that field (not so easy).

At present, my code looks like:

NSCell *cell = [csvTableView preparedCellAtColumn:col row:row];
NSText *textEditor = [csvWindow fieldEditor:YES forObject:cell];

NSLog(@"Match: row %@, field %@, range(%d, %d)", [match row], [match field], [match range].location, [match range].length);
[csvTableView scrollRowToVisible:row];
[csvTableView scrollColumnToVisible:col];
[textEditor setSelectedRange:[match range]];

I feel like I need to between getting the textEditor for the window and calling -setSelectedRange:, I just don't know what.

	Ben.
