Cross-Site Lookup is intended to enhance standard SharePoint lookup functionality. Component allows getting information from any site within site collection, applying list view filtering to retrieved data. Component delivers a powerful function of searching over lookup list. This function provides substring matching in selected column. It is very useful for large lists with over 100 items.
Supported converting of standard "Lookup" column to "ArtfulBits Cross-Site Lookup" column and vice versa (it allows editing content of Cross-Site Lookup columns in Datasheet view). Also, useful feature for adding items on fly. There are two ways how to do that: via new item form or inline entering.
Why ArtfulBits Cross-Site Lookup? Default SharePoint Lookup supports only lookup within the same site, so if you need to lookup data from another site, you cannot use it. ArtfulBits Cross-Site Lookup allows users to refer to a list from any site in site collection. If list contains large amounts of data, it is not very efficient to search for some data using standard SharePoint lookup. Get Cross-Site Lookup and take it for a spin to see what it can actually do for you!
