thanks for your quick response,
I obvioiusly got it totally wrong: I thought the flexform_ds.xml would/could
be used as a substitute for the tca.php.
So there is no way to use such a nice multiple sheet (Flex)Form for records
with traditional fields?! :-(
So, if I would write my own Module, is there a way to use
a) the List-Functionality from the standard List-View through some API?
b) use a FlexForm here and get the resulting XML into a variable which i
could convert to an array with xml2array() and then do the database-update
myself?
Thanks again
Michael
