Hi,
I have been searching for a database module/activity that can be used to create a questionnaire, whereby the data is subsequently stored in a database that can then be searchable by anyone that has access to this course.
I've downloaded the data module from:
http://moodle.org/file.php/5/moddata/forum/587/108640/data_020505.zip
This module allows me to do the first two, but does not seem to have a search option.
Is this module the same module that will appear in moodle 1.6? From the page of the description of the database module, it is suppose to be searchable. (http://moodle.org/mod/data/view.php?d=13&rid=22)
I have also tried using the questionnaire module. Like the database module I downloaded, there is no search option.
Is there a newer version of the database module that allows someone to search the database, based on a selected search field?
Are there any other alternatives?
Peter
Actually, no, we've written it explicitly to work on 1.5.3+ as well. 
eg see http://moodle.org/buzz
There will be a 1.5.4 release soon, that's what I'd recommend.

Hi, folks!
Entering 1.5.4 in the Search foruns I found about 10 references to this version of Moodle. Where can I find Moodle 1.5.4? Was it already released?
I really need to install the Database module and, following what I found in the forum topics I did not installed this module on my 1.5.3 version.
Thanks in advance.

The page you linked to:
http://moodle.org/mod/data/view.php?d=13&rid=22
*is* actually the database module in action.
I've added a direct download link there.

Hi,
The module seems to work in 1.5.3+, except that fields are shown as:
The data module is also named as : modulename.
I' m not sure what went wrong here, I removed the previously installed data module and replaced it with the new one.
Can someone explain how I can add check boxes and radio buttons?? The "usual" separation method "|" did not work.

Hi Peter
The type etc. is due to the language file being missing. Chances are you'll find a language file in the data module folder someplace, try dropping that file into the normal language folder.
Check boxes and radio buttons should be a field type option when you are setting up a new database.

HI H,
Unfortunately, there was no language folder.
With regard to the check boxes and radio buttons, I tried using the same format for differentiating the field type options (|) but that did not work.
I guess when moodle 1.5.4 or 1.6 is ready all will be working fine.
At present, there is no documentation or help.
Thanks
