Hello Chris, It's hard to give a solid example without knowing more about Account and Name models. You need to tell us the names of the fields in your models as well as what fields you want to search on.
Take a look at the code in this pastie: http://gist.github.com/101856 I hope that will give you a good starting point. I assumed that you want to search on account number, account description, name, and address. You will have to change the field names (i.e. account_number, account_description) to match the fields in your models. -- Thuva Tharma On Apr 25, 2:17 pm, internetchris <[email protected]> wrote: > Ok, so can I simplify my request??
