Drupal 7 Fields and Friends
Here's a quick little list of fields related moudules that have come in very handy lately:
http://drupal.org/project/field_collection. This module lets you create a field that is a collection of fields. For example if you need to create a route that contains an arbitrary number of paths, you would create a field collection that contains a path field. The user can then add as many paths to the route as they need. Drag and drop re-ordering is supported as well.
http://drupal.org/project/filefield_sources. This module simply makes it easy to re-use already uploaded files.
http://drupal.org/project/references. The sucessor to node reference this module lets you reference nodes and users in a field.
There are also a few modules I have not tried but might come in handy:
http://drupal.org/project/viewreference. This lets you reference a view from within a field on a node, just like node reference.
http://drupal.org/project/field_group. This lets you put fields into groups that then appear as "tabs" on the node edit form.
