Body
In the end I used an NSTokenField because of some UI appearance things that NSTokenField added for me. But I think that the extra trick I came up with (below) might also work with an NSTextField. Sorry this is kind of convoluted. In a nutshell what I did was to generate an NSMutableDictionary (an iVar) where the keys are the full completions for the partial string in the NSTokenField and the objects are the custom objects that the completion strings represent. In other words, as I am generating the custom completion strings and putting them into an NSArray to be returned from the NSTokenFieldDelegate method <code>tokenField:completionsForSubstring:indexOfToken:indexOfSelectedItem:</code>, I am at the same time stuffing each of those completions and the object they represent into an NSMutableDictionary with the completion as key and the object as value. When the user "tokenizes" the completion (by hitting Return or Tab -- i modified the tokenizing characterSet so that's all that will tokenize), the NSTokenFieldDelegate method <code>tokenField:representedObjectForEditingString:</code> is called. Inside there, I am able to get my object from the NSMutableDictionary by using the editingString parameter as the key: <code>[dict objectForKey:editingString]</code> I think it might be possible with some wrangling in the <code>controlTextDidChange:</code> NSTextFieldDelegate method to do the same thing with completions on an NSTextField instead of an NSTokenField using the dictionary trick, but in order to do that, I think that you would have to have the full completion in the NSTextField, grab its stringValue and then use that as the key. In my case, I did not want the whole completion in the text field, so NSTokenField's tokenizing worked better for me.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
