I have the method being called now in SecondViewController, but suddenly my
UILabel there is (null). ??

// Called from the FirstViewController

-(void)populateTextFieldWithString:(id)string {

[commandText2 setText:string];

NSLog(@"populateTextFieldWithString: %@, %@", string, commandText2 ); //
string is okay but the UILabel is (null)

}

A scope issue?
