I am following Shaun's tutorial regarding module development located at http://forums.asp.net/1114393/ShowPost.aspx

 There is a section where he says

'In order to register the Module in your DotNetNuke framework, you need to add some entries to the database. This can be accomplished using the Module Definitions option in the Host menu or, for development simplicity, you can also use the Module SQL script created using the Item Template. This script will be locacted in the DesktopModules folder and will have the same name as the value entered in the Add New Item dialog box ( in this case named Widget.SqlDataProvider ).' 

I can't find this script anywhere. I see the 01.00.00.SqlDataProvider SQL script in the module folder but not the other one.

So instead, I tried adding the module definition via the application by

Logging in as host

Selecting 'Module Definitions'

Selecting 'Add  New Module Definition'

Selecting 'Widget.dnn' in the midule manifest

Entering 'Widget' for Module name, module folder, friendly name, description, and clicked update

Go back to 'Module Definitions', add a page, and add the Widget module listed in the dropdown

But the 'Add' button will not become live, so I can never add the module.

Don't understand waht I am doing wrong. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Still haven't found the script I was asking about originally, but figured out, by following the tutorial at http://www.adefwebserver.com/DotNetNukeHELP/DNN_Module4/Default.htm, that in needed to click 'Install' instead of 'Update' on the 'Add module' section so I am on my way.
