custom database 
is there anyway to connect UDT to an already existing sql server DB on another server?
in other words, I want UDT to display the content of a table (with standard CRUD abilities on those items) which resides on a separate database than the DotNetNuke DB which usually holds UDT content.

Re: custom database 

please be informed, that this is not  use case of UDT, please have a look at Reports module. Besides, there are 3rd party modules for this purposes, if you are interested, I can provide you with an enhanced example from my company's developement.

Re: custom database 
I figured as much. i was thinking, since it plugs into a local provider in the backend, i might be able to just swap that provider with a different provider (in the source code i mean).

if that's much easier said than done, than i would be interested to see those 3rd parties you're talking about, and you're company's as well. thanks leupold!

Re: custom database 
giving the reports module a go, i almost think these 2 modules should be merged. i could be missing something essential, as I'm quite new to DNN development; however, now that table searching/filtering is being introduced to UDT, seems everyone using the reports module will want them too. as far as reports being a read-only version of UDT, disabling the "edit" checkbox for all users can serve the same purpose.

i guess what i'm getting is this:
UDT is a feature-enhanced Reports, but without custom SQL queries / DB connections. merge the two and you have the bets of both worlds.

Re: custom database 

Reports and UDT are not related anyhow.

form and List will be the successor of the User Defined Table module.

Do you want to import external data to form and List /User Defined Table?
