I have had some good success in getting large chunks of my app done, but there are a few things that I can't seem to figure out, or at least get to working.

I was able to figure out how to open up a new window that was based on a xib file, but what I really want to do is open the new window and close the current one which opened the new one.

Also in the process of opening the new window I want to pass some data, at this point a single string. What is the best way to go about this? My lack of experience with cocoa, and by extension objective-c, is really killing me on figuring this out. Unfortuneatly there isn't just a simple close() method to call.

Here is the code I am playing with to get this to work. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Buddy
