And what if one person is in two committees? > notes = models.TextField() > > def __str__( self ): > return self.firstname + " " + self.lastname > > class Admin: > pass > > class Committee( models.Model ): > name = models.CharField( maxlength=200 ) > leader = models.ForeignKey( Person, > related_name = 'commitee_leading' ) > notes = models.TextField() Use the ManyToManyField here. members = models.ManyToManyField(Person, related_name = 'member_of') -- Maciej Bliziński http://automatthias.wordpress.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
