Hi,

I have a non compiled module (just an ascx with a code behind file) which I use to display information from an external (SQL) database outside the DNN site SQ L database. Basically the module shows items in a paged listview and the information can be filtered with listmenu's, checkboxes etc. All is working fine in the site, but say I want to use the default DNN search possibilities to also search in my external database (eg in one or more fields in a certain table). Is this possible and if so: how does one implement this?

Thx!

you need to implement DNN search interface in your module, please check the Wiki here for details.
