XCode automatically embeds the table in a scroll view for you. To select your Table View you can either slowly double click on the Scroll View, press control+shift and click on the Scroll View, or click the right-facing triangle under the vertical objects in the XIB to reveal every object in the XIB.

You can access it programatically by calling [scrollView documentView], because it is technically a subview of the ScrollView’s Content View (an instance of NSClipView)

To populate your table view you can provide content by hooking up a data source, or by binding its table columns to an array controller.

It’s kind of complicated, you should probably take a look at the Documentation
