Hello,

I found a link (http://www.dhirajranka.com/2011/01/shar ... list-2010/) that enable to filter the value of a lookup column.

I tried this to a SharePoint list form and it works but when I try using the SPForm, there is an error. I think the error starts in Step 12. But how can I modify it using the SPForm standard?

Is this possible to implement in SPForm? I tried following this but to no luck. It prompts an error. Please help.

Hi,

You can design form in Forms Designer and then modify it via SharePoint Designer as described in the article. It have to work if it works for custom forms created with SharePoint Designer. Please, note that after modifying the form with SharePoint Designer you will not be able to change it with Forms Designer otherwise you will lose the modifications made with SharePoint Designer. So, I'd recommend to consider using our Cross-site Lookup solution that supports filtering and sorting. Also you can filter an out-of-the-box lookup with the help of JavaScript right in the form.
