There are two misunderstandings here, and the most important of them is the second one, "before the user defaults are written". There should be NO SUCH TIME. It is up to you register the default defaults (that is, the "initial" value for user defaults before the user has had any chance to express an opinion) before the app even finishes loading for the first time. That is exactly what "registerDefaults" is for. In some cases, finding a sufficiently early entry point can be a challenge; I typically resort to +initialize. m. -- matt neuburg, phd = m...@tidbits.com, <http://www.tidbits.com/matt/> A fool + a tool + an autorelease pool = cool!
