Hi All I have custom tables in mysql database. I want to have a view, where I want to show the data from custom tables in a tabular format with certain conditions.
Example: *UID* *Name* *Email ID* *Alternate Email ID* *Phone number* *Alternte phone number* *DOB* *Years of experience* *Preferred work location* *Highest Qualification* 1 Austin austi@yahoo.com au@rediffmail.com 123456789 987654321 1/15/1975 10 Texas B.E (Electrical) 2 John john@yahoo.com jo@rediffmail.com 3333333333 5555555555 2/16/1989 6 Washington DC BSC 3 Russel r@yahoo.com r@rediffmail.com 777777777 99999999 3/8/1987 8 Seoul MSC
Lets say, in a view I want to show data from this table with a condition. Let the condition is "people who work in Texas".
I have now basic knowledge on views. Can somebody give me a step wise help , how to acheive this.
Regards Austin

Yes, the Data module makes your table available in a view. In fact, it creates a view for you with all of your table columns visible, and you can modify it from there.

Anyone know if there is a Drupal 7 version planned or a promising looking equivalent? *

Hi All Thanks for great information.
Now I have downloaded Data module and enabled all the related modules as mentioned below. 1. Schema , 2. Search, 3. Data, 4. Data Admin UI, 5. Data Node, 6. Data search and 7. Data Taxonomy
(Do I need really those many modules, can I disable few from above)
I am using Drupal 6.20.
In my case, I have already tables created, data is entered through a form and saved into corresponding tables. So for table creation, deletion, storing data into table, deleting data from table is done by a custom module already developed.
I am looking at Data module to scan through multiple tables with conditions (using JOIN, WHERE clause etc across tables) and show the filtered data in a view.
But I am not able to locate the related documents that will guide me how to proceed further. On google search I found http://drupal.org/node/580650 provides some information, but probably not suffiecient.
On further exploring, I went to Administer->Site Building->Data Tables. There I see a tab "Adopt tables". Under that I can see the tables created by my module (around 5 tables). Do I need to select those tables and adopt?????
After doing adopt, if I select a particulr table I see multiple tabs such as " Edit schema, Edit title, Configure search, " etc, Do I need to alter any default thing here.
And finally I saw the view creation page. I can see the tables those were created by my custom module.
Looks I can select only one table at a time. I am looking for showing the records where a particular condition is met across multiple tables. Say show all the user records where user is 40 years old and working in Texas. How can I acheive it?
Please bear with me for asking very basic questions.
Regards Austin

Do you know how to program? Any chance of going to D7? If you can code a query and do a bit of PHP, I'd bet you can do this without any modules faster than unravelling all the modules. And it would be considerably easier with the new object form of queries in D7.

Thanks Nancy. D7, yes I need to move one day, but not now.
In D6, I am trying either through available modules or through a custom module or PHP, want to show specific data in View. I have basic knowledge on PHP, SQL query (learnt recently - me from a different background C, assmbly -- etc), atleast a high level hint will help me to great extent.
Best Regards Austin.
