    <p>So I have this class:</p> <pre><code>@interface AmountViewController : UITableViewController &lt;UITableViewDelegate, UITextFieldDelegate&gt;{ NSManagedObjectContext *managedObjectContext; NSManagedObject *selectedObject; NSDecimalNumber *amount; NSDecimalNumber *accountBalance; NSInteger textFieldRow; } - (void)textFieldDone:(id)sender; - (NSDecimalNumber *)absoluteValue:(NSDecimalNumber *)number; @property (nonatomic, retain) NSManagedObjectContext *managedObjectContext; @property (nonatomic, retain) NSManagedObject *selectedObject; @property (nonatomic, retain) NSDecimalNumber *amount; @property (nonatomic, retain) NSDecimalNumber *accountBalance; @property NSInteger textFieldRow; @end </code></pre> <p>Now in my implementation</p> <pre><code>- (void)viewWillDisappear:(BOOL)animated { NSLog(@"Select Object Amount Value: %@", [selectedObject valueForKey:@"amount"]); if (amount != nil) //amount is out of scope, has something to do with retain, but accountBalance is in scope. ??? { NSLog(@"Textfield Amount: %@", amount); //TODO: save changes to amount //[selectedObject setValue:amount forKey:@"amount"]; NSError *error = nil; if (managedObjectContext != nil) { if ([managedObjectContext hasChanges] &amp;&amp; ![managedObjectContext save:&amp;error]) { NSLog(@"Unresolved error %@, %@", error, [error userInfo]); abort(); } } NSLog(@"Select Object Amount Value (after save): %@", [selectedObject valueForKey:@"amount"]); } [super viewWillDisappear:animated]; } </code></pre> <p>For some reason, the amount object is 'out of scope' only if i modify its value before reaching the viewWillDisappear method. So for instance, I load this view and press back, everything is good. But if I change the amount value then press back, the debugger shows that the amount is out of scope. My thinking here is that the object is getting released prior to reaching the viewWillDisappear method, but I'm not sure what exactly to do. I tried other variations of (atomic/nonatomoic, retain/assign/copy) but I'm not sure I really understand all that even after reading about them. :/ </p> <p>Also, the selectedObject, accountBalance and other objects are still in scope even though they have the same property attributes. Any help is appreciated. Thanks. Let me know if I can provide more info for you.</p>

    1. COIt would be helpful if you add more info, like all the lines of code that perform actions on "amount"

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.
