Comment (by anonymous):
Thank you for your help, Karen. The issue is that everything is honored up
to the point that I use the employee as an instance to a ModelForm. This
works fine and the employee's department name is printed:
{{{
#!python
employee = Employee.objects.using('my_employee').get(id=1)
print employee.department.name
}}}
As soon as I assign a ModelForm:
{{{
#!python
frm = EmployeeForm(instance=employee)
print frm
}}}
The DatabaseError Exception is raised. What I was explaining in the
original post was that if I have a table in the default database that has
the name department, it works to attach the employee from 'my_employee' to
the corresponding department from default. Perhaps I added TOO much detail
in the original description. I have been trying to nail down exactly what
the behavior is.
