[...] If you want to create a custom module in Magento that has something to do with storing data into a custom table and using that later, then this is just the right post you have bumped into! I will presume that you already know about Models in Magento, what are they and how you can create them. Also I will presume that you will also know the basic module structure in Magento. You will have to place this in your config.xml view sourceprint? [...]

Is it possible to use custom table rows as attributes of a product?
For example, I have a Country table and I need to let the admin select countries that an electronic product can work in.
I don’t think country can be an attribute because I also need to save country in the user profile and have some info per country.

Thanks

Thanks for the compliments..

As I see you have two problems left one is storing data from frontend and next is retrieving customer specific data.

For the First, you can go through the admin controller of the Module Created to save data. You just need to set the post array and assign it to the Model and save.

Next on retrieving data you need to add a function collection to retrieve individual data. Please post what can you do or what have to done and I may guide you further.

Thanks.
