Hi,

I've have two tables:

authors, has a column called id (amongst others)

books, has columns called id and authorid  (amongst others)

Obviously a book has an author, so any value of authorid must exist in the authors table.

When I retrieve an authors row, I also want to return the corresponding authors row (books.authorid = authors.id). 

However, when trying to update my Book model, it always seems to link from the id column - how do I make it work against a different column?

Cheers,

N.
