Hi Lee

Can you tell me if it is possible to incorporate software into DNN?

The software that I am refering to is:

 "File Direct"   http://www.companieshouse.gov.uk/toolsToHelp/efSoftwareSupp.shtml 

It is basically a piece of software which allows the user to "Form their Own Company" electronically  by filling in various forms.

Thanks

Hi Lee

Thank you for getting back to me so quickly and your informative answer.

1) I am not a developer so I would not be confident in creating the module.

2) I could create an HTML page/skin if that is what you mean. 

The software contains many Government Related forms which are inter-related, so the form would require database connection.  I am not sure how I can achieve this?

 3) If I used an iFrame I would have the same problem as #2

Thanks

Hello Lee

I took your advice re: custom module.

I have started to look for a module.  Although I have not yet found one that will actually incorporate the software. To date I have seen two very impressive form creating modules:

H2O    www.OnyakTech.com   

Enterprise Form

http://www.snowcovered.com/snowcovered2/Default.aspx?tabid=242&PackageID=5095.

If I may ask another question?

What are the steps I need to follow in order to allow the user to subscribe and instantly give them access to certain pages?

Thanks

Hello youngboy

Thanks for the reply and the offer to help. 

I have since found that it is possible to install the File Direct tools/software into DNN.  File Direct developers will insert the official forms themselves as a type of module directly into the core.

The software needs to be connected to government house and only a select number of software developers have the required permission (licence). Thus as the forms are official documents I have learned that I am unable to use my own form format and I am also required to purchase a licence for use.

Thanks
