In short - there's no clean way in Rails to do this? It's a pure SQL solution? How do I execute pure SQL from within Rails? Do I have to use DBI? I can definitely put both tables in the same database; my original choice of making it two separate databases did little besides teach me how to connect to more than one database with Rails ;-) This is all read only data anyway. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
