actually, i don´t really see a difference between model 1 and 2. you have a company which you assign users to. the news posting is done by a user (which automatically relates it to a company). maybe i don't fully understand what you´re looking for but since news are posted by a user, you need a field "user_id" for the news. > I maybe wrong but I don't think (news.get_user.username) works in > templates. I have to double check. it does (i´m using it). patrick
