Hello Stefen Cullman,

First of all I would like to give my heartly thanks to you, must be thinking why?

Actually I am a beginner to Dot Net Nuke, perhaps having experience in Drupal so atleast clear with the definition what CMS is and how it is used.

After few hours of searching I come up a module named Forms And List and it saved my life from the frustating googling. So thanks once again for all your efforts in making this module.

I created a custom form in a matter of minutes with this module. But now I am facing a problem actually I have a column in my form named Collections which shows the collection of dresses like Couture,Prom,Pageant etc. 

And the problem is that, this data is not hardcoded (cannot be given with ; separated) and is saved in database using other form now I want to fill the Dropdownlist with the records from the database.

Is there any way to achieve this in forms and list module. Or is there any other module which can help me in doing this.

Sorry I am asking very much but can you tell,  is there any module like Views in Drupal.

Thanks in Advance
Amit Chaurasia

sorry, this is not supported out of the box, you will need to create your own data type.

AFAIR Stefan posted about it, either in his blog or here in the forums. Be aware, that it will require some coding though.
