Is anyone here besides me interested in this? After having built a couple of 10-table apps, I'm ready to move on, and I notice that the Scaffold stuff, although it can read the db and deduce the realationships among tables (given the restrictive naming scheme, which as it happens I already adhere to), the scaffolding doesn't seem to recognize the extended properties stuff in MS-SQL at least. This is the equivalent to filling in the Lookup tab in Access with combo-box, data source = MyQuery, etc.) RoR doesn't seem to be able to read the db this deeply, which is unfortunate. Or maybe I'm missing how to set up these column-definitions. Anyone have any experience/insight/offerings on this topic? TIA, Arthur
