Subject: Apple's "Discover Rails in Leopard" doesn't work for me. Any help welcome !

Hello There,

As a newbie, I have followed strictly the steps described in 
:http://developer.apple.com/tools/developonrailsleopard.html. Everything 
went OK until the "Linking Models Together" part.
I have created the "expenses" structure, but after that I cannot do 
anything with it.

I am blocked below :

Start by creating two new vendors in the database:

 >> vendor1 = Vendor.create(:name => 'Parties R Us')
=> #<Vendor id: 1, name: "Parties R Us", ...>

 >> vendor2 = Vendor.create(:name => 'Fire Department')
=> #<Vendor id: 2, name: "Fire Department", ...>


===> OK for me

Next find an event you created earlier in the web interface:

 >> event = Event.find_by_name('Chili Cookoff')
=> #<Event id: 1, name: "Chili Cookoff", ...>


===> OK for me

Then create two expenses that link the event to each vendor:

 >> event.expenses.create(:vendor => vendor1, :amount => 75.00)
=> #<Expense id: 1, event_id: 1, vendor_id: 1, ...>

 >> event.expenses.create(:vendor => vendor2, :amount => 25.00)
=> #<Expense id: 2, event_id: 1, vendor_id: 2, ...>

===> No way, I get a message that says that there are no method for 
expenses...

Any idea welcome, thanks in advance,

Thierry
