I'm new to BrightSign, I want to connect to a SQL Database and show the results of a SQL View, to start it will be a list of work orders due for a particular day and probably have 4 or 5 columns that I'll want to display. I know about user variables but I need a real time solution to displaying schedules.

Cliff Hennig I needed a similar solution, found it easier to build a webpage that had this info that the bright sign tuned into. The webpage did all the magic of grabbing the data from SQL and organizing it neatly. Had a plus side of people being able to pull it up onto workstations and not just view on a monitor.

Julien Levaufre I would need to connect my brightsign to an external sql database, i had a look at the solution of showing up a web page with brightsign and let the php take care of sql requests, but doing that i need to store the web page on our company servers or customer servers and it's not really good. So i would like to know if there is any way to have directly sql request result showing up on the brightsign?
