once or twice... what you're after is a "method"... (you may run into trouble if you try to call your column 'times', I'll use 'times_repeated' in this example) # word.rb def complete self.name * self.times_repeated if self.name end I recommend going through some Ruby tutorials - the "Ruby for Rails" book has a good coverage of getting started through to intermediate use. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
