Rails - Jul 2007 - Expected ... to define

I found several topics that covered a similar error with controllers,
but mine is with a model, and none of the fixes previously mentioned
seemed to apply.

Here is the error:

Expected ./app/models/lab_result.rb to define Lab_result

C:/InstantRails/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.4.2/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:249:in
`load_missing_constant''
C:/InstantRails/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.4.2/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:452:in
`const_missing''
C:/InstantRails/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.4.2/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:464:in
`const_missing''
C:/InstantRails/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.4.2/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:260:in
`load_missing_constant''
C:/InstantRails/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.4.2/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:468:in
`const_missing''
#{RAILS_ROOT}/app/controllers/visit_controller.rb:72:in `delete_lab''

Here is the method causing causing the error:

def delete_lab
  @lab_result = Lab_result.find(params[:id])
  if @lab_result.destroy
    flash[:notice] = "Lab results successfully deleted"
    redirect_to :action => ''update'', :id =>
@lab_result.visit
  end
end

Here is the Lab_result model sitting comfortably in the models dir:

class LabResult < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :lab
  belongs_to :visit
end

Any advice?

The find occurs on the model.  You''re using some sort of combination of
the
model class and the model class file name.  Try:

@lab_result = LabResult.find(params[:id])
