I am using WSS 2010 and need a filter drop down for one of my lists. I would really like a precompiled solution, because my Visual Studio does not support the project type for creating webparts, so I can't use any of the current solutions available. Essentially I am limited to editing the website by anything other than the designer or in page.
Had to change site type to publishing or Business Intelligence Center. For some reason, it is not able to be enabled (even with enterprise package enabled) on blank sites.
