I am new to SharePoint. I have successfully set up a site and 3 lists but I a cannot get around the following problem.
List 1 is a listing of accounts
List 2 is a listing of projects. Each project ties to an account so I created lookup column in list 2 that pulls data from List 1).
List 3 (tasks) also has a relationship with List 2 (and by context list 1). For each task I create I would like to select the associated combination of account/project as determined in List 2. I am trying to set up a column in this 3rd list that has a lookup column made up of the calculated combination of the project in list 2 and its associated account (linked into List 2 from list 1). Unfortunately, when I try to create a calculated column in list 2 I am not give the choice to select the account. It looks like because account is a look-up field in list 2, it is not possible to create at calculated field of one text and one look-up field in the list. Is there a workaround for this?.
