Aside from the fact that you would have been better off letting Rails create your DB via migrations instead of creating it by hand -- you're making this much more difficult than it is. Your previous example doesn't adhere to Rails conventions: anyway, here is the table name, category. # should be named 'categories' columns: category_id int # should be 'id' parent_category_id int category_title varchar(50) category_short_desc varchar (100) category_long_desc varchar(255) dt_created datetime # should be 'created_at' dt_modified datetime # should be 'update_at' user_created varchar(45) user_modified varchar(45) status varchar(1) Then just create your model class, e.g. in app/models/category.rb class Category < ActiveRecord::Base end :: and you're done. It would probably help you to create a trivial app via scaffolding just to see examples of Rails-convention models, controllers, etc. FWIW, -- Hassan Schroeder ------------------------ hassan.schroe...@gmail.com twitter: @hassan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
