Hi there,
Is it possible to make a reference from one field on a form to another form
in the same form library, as well as one form to another in a different form
library on a SharePoint site?

If I were in Excel, I would enter a formula that referenced the other
spreadsheet and the location of the cell. I can't figure out how to do that
with two infopath forms.

We have Office 2003, WSS, InfoPath all with SP1.

Thanks!
Marty

Hello,

if you have published the value you want to query on the form library as a
column, you should be able to query the library with a secondary datasource.

If all fails, you can do this via managed code :-)
