IIRC, you have to do author.get_[article_app]_article_list(). This is because for this end of the relationship, Django has to work out a name to give it (for the other end it just uses the name of the attribute, 'author'). You can override it using 'related_name' on the ManyToManyField. Luke -- "Smoking cures weight problems...eventually..."
