Well, it depends what you're trying to do. You mentioned a reference to 
'tapeList.tapes.VideoClip'. What's the context of that reference, and what 
object or objects are you trying to use there?

There's nothing in the documentation that says you need to declare *instance 
variables*. Using NSManagedObject subclasses is described here:

        
http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/CoreData/Articles/cdManagedObjects.html%23//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40003397-258615

There are no instance variables in this pattern. (Note that there are custom 
property scenarios where extra instance variables are needed, but that's not 
the scenario you have.)
