That worked. This is what I ended up with: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- from django.db import models
# Create your models here. class Year(models.Model): year= models.CharField(maxlength=200, unique=True) event = models.CharField(maxlength=300, null=True, blank=True) class Admin: ordering = ['year'] def __str__(self): return self.year def get_events(self): from mysite.serial_numbers.models import Serial_Number return Serial_Number.objects.filter(year__pk=self.id) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm still a little concerned about efficiency, particularly importing Serial Number for every year. When I moved it to the top of the model it failed "cannot import name Year" maybe because of the foreignKey relationship? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
