Hi Colin, Thanks for the reply. Your question prompted me to search around my class declarations, and sure enough, I found the problem.
I declared two container classes, Captionfile and Run, to capture information in a convenient, encapsulated format. From there I create objects to make arrays/hashes for processing I stored them in the /lib directory, which apparently conflicted with the ActiveRecord class declarations of the same name. I renamed the class files and suddenly it all worked. I now have to figure out how to include these class files without conflict (I'll likely rename them). Thanks for your tipoff! That's what lead me to my solution.
