I finally figured it out or at least one way of doing it. Step 1 - Unbind the HABTM with the Associate model Step 2 - Save User model data Step 3 - bind HABTM with Associate model Step 4 - save data['User']['id'] = getLastInsertID <- for the automagic to happen!!! Step 5 - Save Associate data
Thanks for the suggestions.
