title: Drupal Views - Relating 1 Node to N Other Nodes using CCK, NodeReference and Arguments
body: <p>I am working on a Drupal setup and have run into a slight issue relating nodes together using Views.</p>
  
  <p>Essentially what I want to be able to do, is while editing Node A, have a multiple select node reference field to indicate it is related to Nodes B, C, D. When I view the contents of Node A, it should display the appropriate view for each of those nodes directly on Node A.   </p>
  
  <p>I worked through <a href="http://drupalsn.com/learn-drupal/drupal-tutorials/creating-dynamic-blocks-using-cck-node-reference-and-views-drupal" rel="nofollow">This Tutorial</a> on using arguments in views, but it seems to be doing things in reverse of what I want. This method requires me to set the relationships in Nodes B, C and D to point to Node A instead of having Node A point to Nodes B, C and D. Setting the relationship in 3 different places instead of 1 location seems counter-intuitive and will be a pain to manage when we start applying this method to a bunch of different nodes. </p>
  
  <p>I selected the following options for the argument:</p>
  
  <pre><code>// this is my multiple-select NodeReference relationship field
  Content: Linked Highlight Boxes (field_linked_nodes)
  
  Title: [blank]
  Breadcrumb: [blank]
  
  Action to take if argument is not present: Provide default argument
  Default Argument Type: Node ID from URL
  
  Validator: &lt;Basic Validation&gt;
  Action to take if argument does not validate: Hide View / Page not found (404)
  
  Wildcard: all
  Wildcard title: All
  
  Allow multiple terms per argument: checked
  Exclude the argument: not checked
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Let me know if you need any more information or explanation. Any help will be greatly appreciated.</p>
