Hi there,

I desperately need advice on how to accomplish the following goal:

I have information specific to each individual user. I want to store this information in a table (not necessarily via Drupal) and then query it and display it on a node (I'm guessing?) for each person. I have downloaded the views, cck, and view.fields modules. I have uploaded them and configured them (I think) but I don't see any difference anywhere. I don't know where to put my select statement or how to make it a different query for each user. If anyone could advise me on any of these step I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you!!!

It sounds like the profile module is what you are after. It is part of core but needs to be enabled.

There is also the nodeprofile module which is more flexable.

Thank you, I checked it out but I don't know if it's what I need. I have put information (about deals individuals submit to me) into it's own table, in the mysql database with all the other drupal stuff. I want to show the user (after they log in) the details about their deals that I have stored in the table in the database. I want to store everyone's deals in the same table and query it to display each individual's information to them. Do you know if the profile module is the answer and if so what the first steps would be? And if it's not the profile module, do you have any other recommendations for me?

Thanks!!!
