NSResponder has to methods called mouseEntered and mouseExited. Because NSView is a subclass of NSResponder, all you should have to do is override mouseEntered and mouseExited.

Thanks, I should've looked up the chain.

Also read the /Developer/Documentation/Cocoa/TasksAndConcepts/ProgrammingTopics/BasicEventHandling/Tasks/HandlingMouseTracking.html doc file. I think you'll need to set up a tracking rect to get those messages sent to you.
