You can assign a numeric ID of a TugInstance object to 'instance_id' on a Client object. You can assign an actual honest-to-goodness TugInstance object to 'instance' on a Client object. Both of these will save properly. You cannot assign an actual honest-to-goodness TugInstance object to 'instance_id' on a Client object. You cannot assign a numeric ID of a TugInstance object to 'instance' on a CLient object. Both of these will fail to save. In other words, the actual field you set up wants an actual model instance, while the hidden '_id' which backs it wants a numeric ID. -- "Bureaucrat Conrad, you are technically correct -- the best kind of correct." --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
