You could store an seven-figure number and bitwise it to work out whether a given day was on or off. Or you could have a separate table for "days" and have a many_to_many association with it, to get a "days" collection in your model. Or you could use a recurrence rule, if you need more flexibility (something like RiCal) Any preference? Michael PS Using "zero" for "all" would not be very intuitive, as 0 is normally used to indicate Sunday. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
