cool because:

Hi,
I've got a Rails app working that includes two two classes, etc.:

Right, I don’t want that. I want:
An Expense has a Vendor.
A Vendor has many Expenses.
I believe that’s reflected in: app\models\vend
d in the join-table,
rather than the vendor's name saved in the expense record.
This should be my last hurdle for this application. Any guidance will
be most appreciated. I didn't see an answer on the sites we've talked
about.
Thanks in Advance,

When a user makes a selection of a vendor-name, that name populates

You have my word that I'll get Agile-ized after we reach a working
version 1 (or 1.1 ...). I promise :-)
Thanks to you and Colin for spending time on a wretch like me :-),

Thanks for your response.
Yes. The model consists only of the empty class definition.
But it's got views for show, new, etc. However, none of these views

Hi,
Thanks for you feedback.
My custom search.rb and transform.rb programs did the job, I think. No
test programs were implicated because I'm delinquent on employing
formal testing on my first real Rails app. I know its sinful, but I

Hi Philip,
Thanks for your fast and thoughtful response. I had posted that I was
going to embark on a fresh implementation, but now I'm encouraged to

Best wishes,

Hi,
Maybe the best way is just to recreate the app using the new names and
then re-implement the enhancements I added to reach the current
version. I'm going to start that approach while I wait for some
advice about a better way.

Hi,
I have three tables: Expenses, Vendors and Vendor _Accounts
It should operate as follows:
When a new Expense record is created,
A vendor is selected from a drop-down of Vendors and,
An account is selected from a drop-down of Vendor_Accounts where
Vendor_Accounts#vender == selected vendor

Hi,
I'm on a mission to show my granddaughter how Pi can be computed. For
that, I need Sqrt(2) computed accurately, which I've done. But I need
