Right Heimdull, thanks. So my model setup is correct for what I'm
trying to achieve you think? Any idea why this works:
@first = Entry.find(:first, :include => :category)
@first.category.name
...and this does not?
@entries = Entry.sum(:price, :include => :category, :conditions =>

With the setup that Andres suggested you need a entry_id in the

I think it has to be with the type of relationships you set up. As I told
you, you just need a one-to-many relationship reading your code. I tried
your find with a many-to-many relationship and it worked for me.

Hi Andres, thanks for the reply. I tried your suggested setup, but it
didn't work. I then tried a simpler query with my existing model
setup (which you see above) which did work...
@first = Entry.find(:first, :include => :category)
@first.category.name
Both those work which is great. However,
An entry can only belong to a category right? If this is the case you don't
need this many-to-many association. You just have to:
class Category < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :entries
end
class Entry < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :user
belongs_to :category
end
This will let you do:
