Link between CCK field and view

Question

I want to use a view to select nodes in a content type field. This view must receive an argument that is another field of the content type. Can someone explain me how to pass the argument from the field to the view?

Excuse my poor english

Answer 1

I believe you can use the argument validation to validate the argument, and at that point you are free to change the $handler->argument value before it is passed in to Views.

Answer 2

You might be able to use http://drupal.org/project/views_arguments_extras

It will allow the argument of the view to come from a cck field.
