Or, do I have to do some more preparations. All view objects in my program was created by IB and I've hooked up the proper target/action & outlet/panel connections, but I get an warning message with the following method: - displayresultpanel: sender { [ resultpanel display]; return self; } where the warning message states that ' can not find method' ( I assume display) and another warning message : 'return type for display defaults to id' When I run the compiled program, clicking on the button does not bring up the panel. Any help would be greatly appreciated. == Nasir
