Probably varchar2 is not recognized/translated as a valid rails type and
so activescaffold is defaulting to :select. Try:
config.columns[:standard_nm].form_ui = :string
If that doesn't work you can override in the helper. e.g
module YourModelHelper
def standard_nm_form_column(record, input_name)
text_field :record, :standard_nm, {:size => 20, :name => input_name}
end
end
