You could i suppose generate the scaffold and then delete all the database migrations, leaving only the controllers/views. When you generate the scaffold you would have to list all the attributes you want the scaffold to be aware of. Lastly, none of this should depend on which db you are using Fred -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
