There is no way to do a join between models if there is no relation between them. I see two ways forward: modify one of the models to have a foreign key - even if there is no foreign key in the DB, you can have one in the models - or do the join in Python (fetch all customers, then fetch users by User.objects.filter(customerid__in=[obj.customerid for obj in customers]). Finally join users to its customer). - Anssi -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
