Announcing the Latest Release of Data-Viewer Web Part with New Features Including Web Part Connection

The Bamboo Data-Viewer Web Part allows you to connect to and display list, SQL table/view, List Rollup, or other external data within a Web Part without having to use SharePoint Designer. You can customize the look and feel, allow users to group, filter, sort, apply calculations and/or export items to Microsoft Excel, and customize the CSS or change the Web Part skin. Data-Viewer Web Part also provides powerful features such as displaying nested child data, dynamic filtering, and inline editing of master data. Furthermore, Data Viewer can connect to other SharePoint Web Parts and filter data from connected Web Parts to your specifications. Moreover, in the latest version, users are now able to use filter settings, sort settings, conditional format settings, and calculated settings for nested list data.
