[Rails] Re: adding custom fields dynamically to a model

Are you talking about a dynamic view here?
I.E the table 'records' has 10 fields, but for this particular list
only 3 of them are going to be used?

BTW, if your table is called "records" it will cause problems for
ActiveRecords finds. I suggest you rename it to something else.
