Hello,

I will start with the code directly which will make it much easier to
explain:)

class ProceedingsEditor( models.Model ):

                  contact       = models.ForeignKey( Contact )

The point here is that the contact table is a 10,000 or so field so a
drop down list is none sense

Now in the admin model

class  ProceedingsEditorOptions( admin.ModelAdmin ):

    raw_id_fields = ( 'contact', )

Now Django will just display a normal text field with a Magnifying
glass icon beside it. All is good till now

The problem is that Django displays the contact id which is not useful
at all. Is there a way to reference for

example the contact__unicode() or something with a more meaningful
name??

Thanks in advance

Cheers
