Required files on server

Just got CMS Builder today and trying it out. I have a couple of questions?
The first one is. I'm using wamp and a desktop computer to do my development and have a dedicated webserver that the files will go on. Do I just need the /lib directory on the server or is there more than that required?
The second. Can you have a section that pulls data from another section such as a field that displays a selection of entries from another section as a pulldown?
From what I've seen so far CMS Builder looks great.

Hi shadowcat, welcome to the CMS builder forum!
We use WAMP locally for development so you shouldn't have any problems with it.
You need all the CMS Builder files in both your development and production environments. So just upload all the files. The software license allows an extra installation in a staging/development environment as you describe.
You can setup a pulldown that loads it's values from another table by creating a list field in the Section Editor and setting "List Options" to "Get options from database (advanced)".
Hope that helps! Let me know if you need anything else.
