Indeed, that's why I didn't sleep so well -- something was nagging as 
I clicked Send just before dozing off, but I couldn't stay awake any 
longer to figure it out...
(Although perhaps I've also got a little too used to looking at a 
different sort of nib file over the last couple of months...)
That and the memory management errors in the code:

- (void)createNibForWindowWithButton:(NSString *)fileName {

   // ...
   [NSKeyedArchiver archiveRootObject:nib toFile:fileName];
   [aWindow release];
   [aButton release];
}

That's a fair comment, but I'd nevertheless be interested to know if 
the code-based "explanation" helped (Johnny or anyone else).
