Hi all,

Using the RoR ORM technique, I am not able to create a new row for  
some tables (ie Mytable.new or Mytable.create mwthods does not work),  
while at the same time i can do the same for some other tables. Please  
can anyone educate me what is the reason for this.

TIA  
Usha

Maybe some error messages or example code might help?

Perhaps your table doesn’t exist? Are you saving the new object?
