Hi folks,

I am a Rails/Ruby newbie and this is my first post in this group, so  
please be patient.

I have an application which uses tables like “countries” and  
“languages”. I installed yesterday globalize which also creates sever  
tables like “globalize\_countries” and “globalize\_languages”. Today I  
wanted to create scaffold methods for my tables, but scaffold uses  
instead the globalize methods. So I tried to use set\_table\_name  
“countries” in class Country, but it still uses the globalize tables.  
Any suggestions besides renaming my tables? Thank you!
