I was missing the IBOutlet keyword in the class declaration. Thanks.

This is often the case with an application controller in MainMenu.nib, for example. In that case, you just connect the controller's outlets to the view(s). The application controller often creates the model in code and so has a reference to it that way. It's possible, although I don't particularly recommend it, to instantiate your model object in the nib, too.* The controller serves as File's Owner for the nib. Again, you connect outlets to views, but from File's Owner which at design time is a stand-in for the object that will own the nib at run time. You have to tell Interface Builder what the class of File's Owner will be so it knows about your outlets. In this case, the controller may have created the model or it might have been passed a reference to the model when it was created (by another, superior controller).Cheers, Ken
