Answers.Text: Thanks for your input. Actually I realised i can call  civicrm contacts using the module I have mentioned in this post. But since I have two different Db fir civi and drupal the module can't reach the civicrm tables. Is there any complication of merging two db? The method you are suggesting, do I need to do any php coding?

Answers.Text: That's a separate question, but it sounds like you might need to visit `civicrm/admin/setting/uf?reset=1` (Administer => System Settings => CMS Database Integration) where I think you'll get instructions on configuring the aliases in your settings.php. Or you can merge the DBs as you suggest.
