Re: Enabled Binding bound to NSArrayController won't disable view.

Ben,

I can confirm that setEnabled:NO on the tableview doesn't seem to 
work right.  So you may indeed have to take some 'extreme' measures 
to get this to work.  However, you can successfully get the cell text 
color to change automatically if you set the enabled bindings on the 
table columns.
