Greg McAvoy-Jensen	Tuesday 18 March 2008 9:50:58 pm Mohammad, Welcome to the Exponential community! How are you at creating templates? This sounds like a job for a simple override template. 1. Create a line view template (.tpl file) to display the data the way you want (and use the CSS files for layout). 2. Add an entry to settings/siteaccess/your_access/override.ini.append.php to use your template for the members class. 3. Clear the template override cache. 4. Call that template by inserting an object (paper clip icon) in the XML block of your folder. Does this make any sense? If not, specify what version you're using and I'll link some documentation.

I am new to Exponential. I have created a class for members information and created three objects of that class in the members folder. I want to display the data on one page.
e.g : the class "member" has the following attributes and datatypes.
Name : textline
Address : textblock
Email : email

I have created the folder members and initiated three objects of member class. Now I want to display the data in the following format.
