thanks jerry, if that's the only way i'll have to look into it. one question though, is there anything i could have done that i can no longer read using addSuiteNamed along with arrayForKey like i mentioned in my original post? just a couple of hours ago it was working for me over and over again. but after many attempts of trying to write to the file now i can no longer even get the initial read. i have recreated the plist again and again and these methods will no longer give me the starting array i'm looking for. just running a defaults shell script will give the info no problem and i can see myself the key and info is there. i figured if i corrupted my plist a new one would fix it but no go. anything come to mind? thanks again i appreciate it,

If you want to write preferences to another app you've got to use the CFPreferences API (unfortunately). _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
