How to disable false communication when working on DEV?

we have a LIVE website, with active (recurring) paid subscribers...
every month - they get charged on their credit card through paypal.

now - while creating the next version, updates, etc -
on DEV - we migrated all live user info and started working with it

moving forward, as we are going to have automatic notification on content added, newsletters, recurring payment, etc.

about data import/export

I have couple of records in oracle now I want to put those records in drupal mysql.

How I can achieve this task as I get confused with the modules available for import and export.

Is drupal provides any solutions for this or we have to run the queries in mysql for this.

Views – the basics and a bit more (screencast)

(My previous post mysteriously disappeared. Pardon if this becomes a double post.)

I've just ported my Swedish introduction to Views to English! It can be viewed at blip.tv or downloaded from tr.im/drupal.

The screencast is a step-by-step guide into Views (for Drupal 6, of course), covering the following:
* Download and installation
* Creating a simple list page + the basic settings
* Creating a table
* The point of grouping fields
* Creating and enabling a Views block

Groups.Drupal "how-to"

Hi all,

I was just curious if anyone knew of a tutorial (video or otherwise) that described what all went into the creation of the Groups.Drupal site. Obvioulsy it utilizes all the social networking pieces that so many sites are after (my own inclulded).

Thanks!
Steve
