Description

Hi,

I'm currently evaluating the "View of Views" module if it might offer a solution for a problem; according to the description ("Concatenates multiple (table) views together into one table"), this module might be exactly what I need - a similar module like "Views Fusion" (http://drupal.org/project/views_fusion). "Views Fusion" requires the "nodefamily module" (http://drupal.org/project/nodefamily) and even worse a patch (http://drupal.org/node/123482) for the CCK nodereference field.

I neither want to edit fields nor enter data in a view nor calculate, I simply want to "merge" data from "View A" and "View B" in "View C" (or something equivalent to a table view). IMHO, the required relations between the data parts are defined by nodereference fields; I "simply" need a "glue" (after researching this for days that this is not simple in Drupal).

However, after installing the module and playing around a bit I could not "fuse" together views. The question is now: Is this module suitable for what I want, or do I not understand the description correcty?

Thanks & greetings, -asb

views 2 (for 6.x) can handle relationships already on its own!

Irrelevant. Question relates to D5, Views 2 isn't available for D5, and I can't upgrade to D6.

yeah, but who can upgrade ... should do it. Views 2 is really amazing.
