Different people learn in different ways. I, too, am one who learns
better by doing, so examples are beneficial, especially if they even
remotely relate to my issue. And, yes, I even occasionally try to "do
before reading" because a solution without a problem seems to be the
tail wagging the dog.
But when it comes time to read, I do so. Unfortunately, computers only
do what you tell them to do, so searching requires the correct terms,
and Views docs, in particular, are filled with terms that don't trip
off the fingers of the uninitiated readily. That's no slight to Mr.
Miles at all; he writes concisely. In my initial response, I gave Mr.
Wiseman, the term "relationship" with which to search, hoping that it
would get him to the docs he needed. Since I was just waking up and
needed to get ready for church, I didn't have time to find the article
for him.
Mr. Wiseman, in case you didn't know, Mr. Miles is known as
"Merlinofchaos" on Drupal.org; strike a bell?
I think there might be one other bit of reading that you might want to
do: the description of these lists. In contrast to what Mr.
Favia wrote, it seems to me that this question should have been in the
Support list as it does not deal with the development of Drupal itself.

Thank Nancy,
So development of drupal modules which are not part of the core go to
support - I did not know this so thanks.
Will be looking a views again tonight (day job to do!). I am looking
into helping out port LinkedIn to Drupal 7 but felt I might be best just
getting a simple view/database module going first. I do have on question
with regard to building the code though, is there a standard approach to
where to put the bits. I understand .install and .info but where how to
split up the pages seems unclear to me.
