Pre-Populated Lookup Results
Hi,
I recently implemented a new object (Forms) in Salesforce that contains a lookup to another custom object (Items). When my users go to fill in a new Form, they are required to lookup an Item. Since the users have neither viewed Items before nor created Items, the initial lookup lists no Items. I know that lookups generally show the last 20 items a user edited or created - is there any way around this? I want them to see all Items available.
Thanks!

Have you had a look at the new Lookups design in Summer '08? That might help you here. Also, if you can get the users to search the item first and then create the Form from there, then the Item will be prepopulated in the Form.

Great idea - going backwards throught the Items. Thanks!
