Serge,

Watching it through the debugger shows that init is called, then
makeWindowControllers, and then init again. This is why it is making
two objects.

I put [self updateUI] in awakeFromNib but this does not stop the double init.

If I move the allocation and initialization of the array to
awakeFromNib I create only one array but when I go to save it with
dataRepresentationOfType it says that the array is null.

Like I said before I'm pretty new at this but it seems like things in
dataRepresentationOfType and dealloc for myDocument have different
objects for the same names that work differently in the rest of the
program.  So this has me pretty stumped.

Thanks,
Dave
