But that make sense to me that the field was validated only when the edition ends. Before that the returned object would be nil most of the time. That's ok for a simple number but not for a more complex object like a Date or Time. I dont know what you need to do with the value of the field but the following should always work : [[valueField currentEditor] string] Anyway you're right : your code should work. I found out in the Cocoa specs that the -*Value methods must invokes the -validateEditing method before extracting and returning the value. -textDidChange doesnt. IMHO the bug is in NSNumberFormatter. I did have problem with this class.
