Hello DNN Community,

I want to have a phone book on my website.  It will have about 30,000 records (all in one table, I imagine).  The table will have State, County, City, Company Name, Phone, and Website.  I want the website visitor to choose their state from a drop-down box, then the second drop-down box will be filtered by that particular state's county.  Then the user will select their county.  At that point, I want the records to be displayed below the two drop-down boxes for that county only.  I have looked at Form and List, Reports, Document Repository, etc. but I am not sure which module is the best one for accomplishing my goal, or if I need to have custom code written.

Here is a Picture View:

Select State ======================== drop-down ================

Select County ======================== drop-down ================ 

Record 1 City, Company Name, Phone, and Website

Record 2 City, Company Name, Phone, and Website

etc.

I would appreciate any advice as to which module I should use.  Thanks!

I am not aware of an existing module, you might need to create a custom module for this purpose.

Actually, today I discovered a free tool by Tressleworks: SQLGridSelectedView. It is working wonderfully.

I knew, SGSV is a great module, but I wasn't aware about this feature. Thanks for the feedback.
