cell.detailTextLabel.text not working... why

Using the following code I am getting the text.label but not the detailTextLabel.text. The NSLog is displaying correctly.

cell.textLabel.text = [eventLabels objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];  
cell.detailTextLabel.text = [eventFields objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]];  

NSLog(@"%@", [eventFields objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]);

I also tried...

cell.detailTextLabel.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@", [eventFields objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]];

I have not had problems with this before. Any suggestions?

John

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView 
         cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {

if (cell == nil) {
    cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle 
                                   reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier] autorelease];
}

Do remember to change to UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle

If you choose style UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle , your detailTextLabel.text will show 

cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle 
                               reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier] ;

Make sure you're using an appropriate UITableViewCellStyle with this (anything but UITableViewCellStyleDefault should thus work). The cell's style is specified when you initialize it.
