Different people learn in different ways. I, too, am one who
learns better by doing, so examples are beneficial, especially
if they even remotely relate to my issue. And, yes, I even
occasionally try to "do before reading" because a solution
without a problem seems to be the tail wagging the dog.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>But when it comes time to read, I do so. Unfortunately,
computers only do what you tell them to do, so searching
requires the correct terms, and Views docs, in particular, are
filled with terms that don't trip off the fingers of the
uninitiated readily. That's no slight to Mr. Miles at all; he
writes concisely. In my initial response, I gave Mr. Wiseman,
the term "relationship" with which to search, hoping that it
would get him to the docs he needed. Since I was just waking
up and needed to get ready for church, I didn't have time to
find the article for him.</div>

<div>Mr. Wiseman, in case you didn't know, Mr. Miles is known as
"Merlinofchaos" on Drupal.org; strike a bell?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I think there might be one other bit of reading that you
might want to do: the description of these lists. In contrast
to what Mr. Favia wrote, it seems to me that this question
should have been in the Support list as it does not deal with
the development of Drupal itself.<br>

Thank Nancy, <br>
<br>
So development of drupal modules which are not part of the core go
to support - I did not know this so thanks. <br>
<br>
Will be looking a views again tonight (day job to do!). I am looking
into helping out port LinkedIn to Drupal 7 but felt I might be best
just getting a simple view/database module going first. I do have on
question with regard to building the code though, is there a
standard approach to where to put the bits. I understand .install
and .info but where how to split up the pages seems unclear to me.<br>
