I'm trying to get a list of zip codes in my database with

zipstring = sprintf("select distinct zip from visits,households where
" +
  "households.id=visits.household_id and visits.month='%2d' and
visits.year = '%4d' " +
 "and visits.monthly = 1 order by households.zip;", datestart.month,
datestart.year, dateend, datestart)

@ziplist = Household.find_by_sql(zipstring)

this gives me an array of zip codes. Then I use

        <%= render :partial=>"monthly_report", :collection => @ziplist %>

to run monthly_report for each zip code. This is where the problem is.
If I try to put the variable into a find call, it isn't text.

If I look at it in the debugger, it's

#<Household zip: "01501">

and .to_s is

"#<Household:0xb68ad9e4>"

All I need is the 01501 part, but I'm getting the memory address in my
find call. Please help.

Thanks
