Retrieving data from a database

Retrieving data from a database was created by acrocephalus
Hello,
I have installed JooDB but I don't know how to configure it. I've been searching the documentation but I am quite lost. I need to retrieve data from a database named #__form_bruel. It has 2 fields, Bruel_ID (numeric) and Bruel_URL (URL). I would like to build a catalog so it is possible to show the Bruel_ID on one column and the Bruel_URL on the other as a clickable hyperlink. Can anyone help?
Thanks,

Dani

Create a new JooDB database with #__form_bruel as your main table,
Bruel_ID as primary key and
Bruel_URL as title and maybe content also.

Add a catalog vie menu entry and watch the result.

Hint:
* Use the demo database as Blueprint
* Disable link-titles in the menu config for your catalog.

I'm having a strange issue right now. I am trying to create the database, but on Step 1, when I press Continue, it does nothing. I've tested it on Chome and Firefox.
