Lookup table and display a field

(0) ShareShare

This is probably really simple...I created a new view and one of the columns is a Location code.  I want to display the location description instead of the code in the  column.  How is this done?

Thanks!

    Hi,

    As far as I understood, you have a lookup and for it's view, instead of Location Code you need to show the Description field.

    For this purpose, you have created a new view.

    To use this view in the lookup field, you have to perform following steps:

    • Open the form in design mode (on which you have the location lookup), and double click on lookup field to open properties tab.
    • Select the new view under Default view setting and click Ok.
    • Save and Publish the form.

    Thanks for your help. I already figured out that if I go into mu customized view I need to edit the field properties , change the source table, and select the appropriate field.
