Well, I don't have the current version of this book, but one trick 
that can help is to change the nib window to hierarchical view, and 
then expand the tree out until you can see the tableView that you want 
to connect to, then control-drag to that instead of the table on the 
column. That's probably the easiest way to get to one item in a nested 
hierarchy such as you have with the table views.
