Right Heimdull, thanks. So my model setup is correct for what I'm trying to achieve you think? Any idea why this works:
@first = Entry.find(:first, :include => :category) @first.category.name ...and this does not? @entries = Entry.sum(:price, :include => :category, :conditions => ['user_id = 1'], :group => 'categories.id') It doesn't seem like my model setup is using the catogory_entries table successfully as a join table.
