I've looked at Schema + Tablewizard, as well as Feeds, but haven't been able to get a solution.

I essentially need data in one drupal install selectable from another. Their databases are on the same database server

I was curious if there was a way to use Views to accomplish this. I've heard mention several times that Views supports external data sources, but have not been able to find out how to do that.

Thereis a patch for this feature #576694: Enable views to handle external tables properly, allowing for joins across tables in different mysql databases at this moment there isn't a way to do this with stables versions of views, so if you can review this patch and test it, this can be included in view in the future.
