I want create a form on a single table I’ve created on mysql.
I cannot find a way to do so. When I create a form I’m not able to associate the field table to the field on form.
It’s possible to interact with a single table?

I must say, I am just discovering all the potentials of Formidable Pro, and it's brilliant! This will save me a lot of time.
Richard van der LindeFormidable is 1) very well thought out to be easy enough to use while providing sufficient breathing space to customise and add deeper coding and 2) its stand-out feature is the quality, care and consideration taken with forum advice. Pretty much every single entry on this forum gives some useful information and is politely given. I have purchased a number of premium plugins and the support varies wildly; this is the best money I've forked out.

I think this hook is what you are looking for: http://formidablepro.com/knowledgebase/action-hooks/frm_after_create_entry/#kb-insert-form-data-into-second-database-table

Yes, I used the metod and fille my table, but the problem now, is that I don't know how to display data. I wasn't able to show the data previously saved.
I cannot see how to build a form with this external table.

Sorry, but my English is limited.
Currently I solved using two hidden fields on the form. I could retrieve the data from
wp_frm_item_metas. All work fine and I have had a good result.Now I have to populate these fields, which must contain the result of a procedure written in php.
The result is numeric, but I could not set the type field on the form, because it is considered a hidden field type and not an attribute of the field. I hope does not lead to problems.
Which hook should I use and how?
frm_after_create_entry?

I'm not entirely sure what you're asking, but I think this is it?

No, I want to set the value of the hidden field before the post is written on the db.
Alternatively, I could update the value of the hidden field after the form has been written.

We usually use this hook for changing a value before it's saved:
