I'm using SP2010 unfortunately without SP Designer and only used InfoPath once.

I have 2 lists:

  • List A - Is a list of 'Event Codes' with a 'status' column displaying Active, Used or Reserved status for each Event Code.

  • List B - Has a look up column displaying an Event Code from List A.

When adding a new item to List B and selecting an event code from the drop down box, I want to view all event codes and their allocated status next to each event code.

In effect having data from two columns displaying in the drop down menu.

  • Thanks for your reply. I would like the drop down menu to display each code, and their individual statuses. EG: Code1 - Used Code2 - Used Code3 - Active Code4 - Reserved
