    <p>I am trying to create a simple Mac OS X application which displays text output, which is logging for my program. Here is what I did:</p> <p>1) Created a Mac OS X UI project</p> <p>2) Added a "Text Field" component into the middle of the Application window in MainMenu.xib</p> <p>3) Added a new class "MainWindow.m" with the following property:</p> <pre><code>@property (assign) IBOutlet NSTextField *mainWindowText; </code></pre> <p>4) Connected up a "Referencing Outlet" from the text field component to the property. I now see a gray dot to the left of the above line of code</p> <p>5) In my application, I create a new thread which creates an instance of MainWindow. Then I wait 5 seconds and try to access the mainWindowText variable above but it is always null. I was expecting a non-null variable so I could call setStringValue: and modify the text at any time.</p> <p>I tried doing something similar with doText: and I am able to see the callback when I hit enter, and write text there. However I need a way to modify the text at an arbitrary time and I thought the above property was the proper way. </p> <p>I have also tried adding a @synthesize statement, but that had no effect.</p> <p>Any suggestions?</p> <p>Update: After reading some posts I think the problem is that I am working with the wrong mainWindow object. I tried creating a NSObject in the NIB and making its custom class type mainWindow, and created a IBOutlet (type MainWindow *) in one of my other classes, but it would not let me wire these two things up, so I am not sure how to access this NSObject object I added to the NIB.</p>

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.
