Hi Scott and Ian, Thank you very much. That worked. But I'm still not clear why I need to use the belongs_to relationship when the affiliation_id is directly available in the People table. I can understand that if I had to pick up the affiliation_description from the Affiliation table, I would have to use the belongs_to relationship, but why I need to do that for the affiliation_id also is not so obvious.
