Does anyone know of a Database Module that is searchable?

What I am looking for is a module that I can use to create my own database (video library, book list, etc). It would need to allow me to create the fields and being searchable is a must.

My current need is for a Records Archive Database. I have a wide variety of archived records (hard copy files) and need to be able to search by a person's name to find the appropriate archive.

Maybe I missed something in the Module Repository.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

All databases are searchable...

What is it that you seek specifically? There are book modules, video library modules, etc. all available for xoops. Have you checked the modules library? Perhaps you'll find what you seek there. I think I recall that someone even wrote a module to just query the XOOPS db... but at my advanced age I can't be certain.

If you're looking for an open source query tool like crystal reports you might try datavision from Sun.

Hi there,

Formulize, available on dev.xoops.org would fit that bill perfectly. We haven't put it in the module repository, since we still think of it as Beta, since the feature list for this phase of development isn't complete. But it's really stable and polished, so don't let the Beta tag scare you off.

I noticed your new project on dev.xoops.org, which intrigued me since it seemed similar to Formulize, so I sent you an e-mail. Then after looking for stuff you'd done on http://www.xoop.org, I found this, so here's another message pointing you at Formulize, sorry if this seems like harassment! Just trying to get the information out there, and I thought this thread deserved a response for anyone who might happen across it in the future.

If you have development energy you were going to put into such a project, perhaps we can work together on some of the new features we're putting into Formulize. A roadmap will have to be produced soon....
