In that case some of the clever stuff in Rails may not be available to you, you may have to do them 'by hand' so to speak. I don't know whether there is a way of using build in the way you want in your circumstance. The alternative is just to create the object explicitly. I expect you have already googled for rails legacy database to get as far as you have. Colin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
