autogenerated models assume plural you can manually override it with the table statement to any name you choose (eg for legacy database integration) As always in RoR - convention over configuration. You can ignore the convention whenever you like at the price of having to add configuration information manually PS: there is a RoR gem called db_discovery or similar, from memory) which you can point at legacy databases and it just goes through and automatically generates all models and migration code from introspection and metadata analysis - regardless of tablenames etc. Horst _______________________________________________ Gpcg_talk mailing list [email protected] http://ozdocit.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gpcg_talk
