I don't think there's a way to set the number of columns in an NSTableView via bindings. If you can live with a static number of columns, the rest is easy. You'll need to rewrite the tab-delimited data as entries in an array of dictionaries for the plist:
{nameOfColumn1 => row1valueForColumn1 ... nameOfColumnN => row1valueForColumnN}, {nameOfColumn1 => row2valueForColumn1 ... nameOfColumnN => row2valueForColumnN}...
And, in IB, bind the columns individually to "controller.nameOfColumnN".
Many thanks for the hint. My concern was whether this is possible in general ;) Regarding to the static numbers of columns, I could live with it, but a nib file contains three 'simple' plist files. Maybe it would be possible to modify these files at runtime. I don't know whether it works but at least I'll try it ;-O
Thanks,
