Objective-C question: Orphan connection

I have a text field that should have been only an outlet, but I assigned an action to it. I deleted the action in the .m and .h file, but now I am getting a "could not connect action" error.


Where do I go to delete the connection? Control-Clicking on the control does not reveal any sent actions, and there are no warnings (at least about this) from the compiler.

Hello Keith,

The action should be listed in the inspector. If it is orphaned, it will have a grey checkbox. When you click it, it should go away.
