Re: [Rails] help with mssql sqlserver gem, table prefix

Honestly if you can't conform to basics of what the ORM expects Rails is probably the wrong choice for you.

It sounds like you're trying to write a Rails app against an already existing database (which, I presume, already has other clients connected to it and changing data in it). This sounds like a bad idea.

The preferred solution would be to adjust the database schema so as to
fit the Rails Way.  So have a companies table rather than multiple
tables with a prefix.
