Hi Dirk,
Do I understand you right that only tables from the database in wich joomla is in could be read?

Regards, Jan

Hi John and everyone,

remember that Joodb only connects to the joomla database because it uses the joomla db-object. External tables are not accessible yet.

Ok, so i figured that part out.  Your tool will only connect to an existing database.  To create the database I then used the EasySQL Component to create the tables that I was then able to connect to.

Now to explore your tool...

Hello,

I have just installed your tool into a test environment and am trying to establish my first database.  I have entered the name and am then being prompted for the main table.  I was expecting here to be able to create a new database, the tables, fields and joins, but it appears that I am only able to connect to an existing database.  Is this the case?

If so, do you have any suggestions as to how I create the database that I want to connect to?

Thanks

John
