Problem with Currency Converter tutorial

I'm trying to wire up the ConverterController object to the user-interface elmements in the Currency Controller window. I followed the instructions: choose attributes from the inspector window, click 0 outlets, click add, and then add rateField, dollarField, and amountField. I then added the "convert" action via the "Add Action" menu. Finally, I connected the ControllerConverter instance to the text fields.

After doing all this, I noticed that I had not added "convert" as an outlet along with rateField, etc. So I backed up and tried to select the "Outlets" tab in the inspector pane--but it won't let me add a new outlet. Selecting each outlet only connects/disconnects them from the ControllerConverter instance. I can't delete them and start over, either. Also, the "classes" menu is disabled, so I can't access it form there. As a result, I'm a bit stuck: how do I go back and add the "convert" outlet without trashing the whole project and starting over?

Apologies in advance if I'm missing something obvious. My background is with stone-age tools (Emacs and Python/Tcl/Tk, everything in text files and coded by hand), so IB's visual approach is somewhat opaque and unintuitive for me. I've searched various docs, but I can't find how to do this.

Thanks for any help,
Kevin
