Yes, I know I've run plenty of scaffolds and generated lots of models.

I just didn't think I would need to do this, but now it seems 
reasonable not to upset the apple cart in order to update one field in a 
table.

I've already got the method in my controller in my invoicing class - just 
need to figure out how to link the form and this method thru a route.

Thanks,
Joe
