Looking For A Forms Module

OK Yes i know i could just create forms and add them as a module but I am looking for something like Tabascos hotforms where everthing can be done from admin panel. I tried installing hot forms but i am getting acess denied in the admin panel when i try to get to it and it wont intall the sql from the install file. I was going to just convert the install into sql querry and run it that way but it seems to me that there are going to be vulnerabilities with this mod if it doest follow the guidlines used by Raven Nuke. So after that long and pointless explanation does anyone know of a DB DRiven Forms Mod For Raven Nuke...?

Tabascos hotforms are very old - I think it was for phpNuke 5.0 and it never came out of the beta state. The admin sections have more than 900 lines of code. You will need some days to convert it...

Is it not easier to create own forms in module with a little db-table and functions for create, edit , update and delete? I mean if you start with a conversion of old stuff, then you can write a new module, too. I'm working atm on a module conversion and its hard to get a fresh and clean code with a lot of old stuff.

Yes it was from 5.0 the problem with me just doing the mudule is that i need people with no programming ability at all to be able to go in admins and create a new form

Although it isn't integrated with RN (or any other x-Nuke AFAIK), I've been very pleased with http://formtools.org. It is worth a donation, for sure. Just be clear, FormTools is a back end form processor - you still must build the front-end form (though FormTools offers a commercial tool for that, I haven't used it). I know that you're looking for something integrated, but others might use this as an alternative as there might not be anything current with the integration for which you're looking.
