I've recently started using the Salesforce Ruby Toolkit, and have been able to successfully list and update objects. A lot of my custom objects have lookup relationships or Master-Detail relationships. When it has one of these, I'm unable to create a new object because of the extra "_id" that it adds to the sfdc field name. Ex: field is named MyBoss__c, ruby toolkit names it myboss_id__c.  When it tries to insert the object, it says "Required fields are missing: [MyBoss__c]".

Has anyone had this same problem? If so, how did you get around it?

I'm using Ruby 1.8.7, Rails 2.2.2, asf-soap-adapter 1.3.1, facets 2.8.4

Also installed: rforce 0.7, & rforcedotcom 20.0.0
