I wanted to get a subset of an entity's attributes because one of the 
ManagedObject's attributes is a large image. 

I've tried 
1) creating a blank Managed Object Model and adding only the attributes I want, 
but of course the PSC says
that the MOM that was used to create the store is different, and returns an 
error.
2) using the -setPropertiesToFetch: method of NSFetchRequest, with the "id" 
NSAttributeDescription I'm looking for as the only object in the properties 
array. But when I use the -(NSArray*) properties method of the fetched objects, 
the "image" attribute is there with a non-nil value.
3) I ended up using one of the NSExpression expressions to get the value I 
wanted, using the example in the Core Data Programming Guide.

Out of curiosity, does anyone have experience using the -setPropertiesToFetch 
with anything other than an NSExpressionDescription?

Thanks,

Gabe
