Default You are correct! Book examples don't work in regards to IB

You'll have to study the IB documentation a bit the first time you get stick.

(Hint: when the book says "Control-Drag" and nothing happens, don't kick yourself. Control CLICK withOUT dragging, and noodle around with what pops-up...)
Ouch! You're right. I already ran into trouble. The simple "button fun" demo doesn't work. I'm going to try your suggestion above (Control-click) and see what happens.

Do you think the Apple tutorials on the dev connection web site are correct? I'll try those to learn how to use IB correctly.
