I hope I can explain this. We are on version 6.01 of your product. I have a new page request for our DNN website which involves creating a table of links to documents. Is there a way, sub routines or API methods, that I can query the DMX tables and return links to documents based on certain criteria (custom attributes I'm assuming)? If so is there documentation/examples that I can use to help? I need to create a table with names of documents down the side broken out by versions of those documents by quarter across the top. The users want to also have a dropdownlist box of years. As they choose a year the table will refresh with document links for that year. Under each quarter column will be icons as the links to the documents (PDF's or Audio Files). q1 q2 q3 q4 Press Releases Earning Docs Audio File Transcripts Presentations I sent this to Peter but I guess he is in Spain so I hope that I can get some help.

q1 q2 q3 q4 is suppose to be pushed over like columns on a table. I sure do hope this is making sense.

It will need some working out of SQL to draw out the information like that. But I'm sure it can be done. The data model is not very complex. All documents are in DMX_Entries so you can draw your data from there. A download link is simple to construct as you point to download.aspx and add portal id and entry id as parameters. Peter

About Bring2mind

Bring2mind is the company of Peter Donker, a DotNetNuke enthusiast who has been involved with the platform from the very beginning. At the same time as the market for modules emerged, he realized there was no good document management solution for the platform yet and he set about creating this. In part he based the module on his experience with other document management systems he used while working as a researcher. His module, Document Exchange, was an instant success and has since become the premier document management solution for DotNetNuke. In 2004 he created Bring2mind as a vehicle for the module and is one of the few successful businesses solely based on a DotNetNuke product.
