Re: add a field to a form that isn't in a model

Thanks for your reply, Shawn. Adding the fields in my ModelForm
doesn't seem to do the trick, by itself. The field doesn't appear in
the form unless I also add it to the model class, which necessitates
that I have a table field for the above mentioned model class X. The
upshot is that I would end up storing the same data in two different
tables. In my present case, that's no big problem, so perhaps I
shouldn't worry about it. But, just out of curiosity, I wonder what I
would do if I felt it was imperative to not store the data in two
different tables.
