Hello all,

I tried adding a column to my db. After the column was added  
successfully I ran “ruby script/generate scaffold Product Admin” hoping  
that would recreate the scaffold and show my new column. However,  
it’s not showing. Is there a way that I can just kill all the files  
created when I originally created the scaffold or which file can I edit  
to show this new column. I have looked through all of them (I think) and  
can’t seem to find the one I would need to edit to reflect this change  
in the db. Thanks for any help.
