Hi,
I would like to create a view that displays some customs field of a node created through cck, but views only allows to user node generic fields.
Is there a simple way to do this?
I would also like to have a custom menu for a specific type of role and node, what module could I use to do this?
thank yo!

For 5.x too
I'd like to know more about this, for 5.x as well. I've had the same question using CCK nodes: I make a CCK type with custom fields, yet those fields don't appear when creating Views.
Anyone: Are selecdiet and I just missing something, or is this not an option in Drupal?

Figured OUT
For anyone that needs it,
Acomplishing this is actually quite simple. In VIEWS, you customly created fields are displayed under the group "content". That is, you add a field to display and choose "content" from the group drop down list. Your custom fields should show there.
"Content" group?
Sorry, I'm not following. Are you talking about Views for D6? (The thread is tagged for 6, so that would only be natural!)
Using 5.7, I have the usual groups "Basic information", "Page", "Block", "Fields", "Arguments", "Filters", "Exposed Filters", "Sort Criteria", and "Meta Tags". No group called "Content". Under the "Fields" group, the "Add Field" pop-up has... ah, there are my custom text fields! They're prefaced with "Text: ", followed by the field name. I could swear they weren't there before!
I assume this is the solution you refer to. Thanks for getting me to check once more!
