I don't believe you should do it that way; instead:
- Modify the model object used by the table view's data source to populate the table view.
- Call the table view
reloadData
(or betterreloadDataForRowIndexes:columnIndexes:
).
Therefore you should only need an outlet to the table view to do this and any modification of the table view's cell objects should be done within the table view delegate and/or data source methods.
