Add attr_accessor :cc_number to your model, then validate it. Then call .save(false) when saving the model object internally, to bypass all your validations. Everything will work as if you had a column with that name, except find_by_cc_number, or loading the number (natch). Also f.text_field will work, so Card.new(params[:card]) will work. -- Phlip --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
