The link I sent you earlier is part of a bigger guide that details this and everything else you should know about memory* management in Cocoa: http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/MemoryMgmt/MemoryMgmt.html You owe it to yourself (and the list ;-)) to study it closely; it's a fundamental concept. -- I.S. * - I ALMOST hit send with this spelled as 'mamory management' ... a little too close to 'mammary management' if you ask me.
