I would like to know how I could do the following:

After a user has logged in, I would like him to be prompted to fill out a Profile that is made up of different sub-categories (not all need to be completed on first login).

For example I would like to have the following categories:
Personal Information:
(Different fields)
Family Information:
(Different fields)
Medical Information:
(Different fields).

I would also like the ability to let the user choose what he wants to be viewed publicly and what not.

Any help or direction on where to read up on this will be much appreciated.

This is a great incremental data gathering strategy that I would like to employ too. Looking forward to hearing how it can be done...in Drupal 6.x of course.

I am still a novel "drupaller" and when trying to figure out this problem I thought about using the cck module to create different content types (like personal info, family etc...), and then using views to be able to view the info, however I still have the problem that in my system, a user creates a profile with all different information,, this should be linked to his node, but should be able to be viewed by someone loggin in with a special username+passwd that he supplies to other people, these people will be only able to view what the user allows them too..... so once again i am at a bit of a loss.
