README.txt in Views Dynamic Fields 7

SUMMARY
-------

The Views Dynamic Fields module provides a filter for use with Views module.
This filter allows the user to pick and choose which fields to display for a
rendered instance of a view for that user. This provides a customized view
instance for each user.

This module provides additional value when used with the Views Excel Export
module (http://drupal.org/project/views_export_xls) to generate an xls file from
a view. The xls file will only display the fields you have chosen on the
rendered view instance in browser.


REQUIREMENTS
------------

This module depends on

 * Views: http://drupal.org/project/views
 * Chaos Tools Suite: http://drupal.org/project/ctools

Optional, this module works great with
