binding options help please

I have finally got my bindings work fairly well.... I
have a tableView with a bound array. some of the
columns have popupbuttons. I am struggling with
getting the 'title' of the button.

As I am storing the data in an external database, I
want the 'title' of the popup button. I seem to be
getting an instance of the contentValues. So I created
a ValueTransformer that returns a string class. But I
think I am still missing something.

It appears to be working except for one little detail.
When I click on the popupbutton, I want to see two
entries ( entry1, entry2 ) but I see three. I see
entry1, entry2, and <NPJobType 0x35f440>

Where is this listing of the class coming from. What
Am I missing in my understading?

I can supply that classes I am using to feed this
table. But I feel this must be a problem with the
transformer.

it is returning an NSString class

-(id)transformedValue:(id)aString {
NSJobType *newObject = [[[NSJobType alloc] init]
autorelease];
[newObject setJobType:aString];
return newObject;
}

reversedTransformedValue:(id)value {
return [value jobType];
}

Any help (on or off list) would be appreciated.

Ted
