It was just some thrown together code - not staying like that permanently. I create named scopes mostly for pagination or for reusability in multiple methods. > Why not put the team_id for the opponent in the schedules table ? > I can't parse the schedules from ncaa.org so I'm having to enter every team's schedule by hand into the table initially. 120 teams x 12 rows = 1,440 team_ids.. I would have to look up each team id manually in order to verify and place them in there. Whereas when I manually enter the data in right now, I simply am entering schedules via printouts. I would hate to have to verify 1,440 IDs but if that's the best way to do this then I will. The name of the column would have to be different though. I can't have two team_id columns in my schedules table. I was really hoping there was a way to query the teams table and find the team_id for the name == opponent from the schedules table.. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
