Cross App form not showing text lookup field info

Hi all! 

I have a cross app form on a child table (App B) with a parent table (App A) because users of the form in App B need to see the information inputted by users in App A, but do not need to have access to change it. I've modified the permissions on the fields in App A and App B so all users have a minimum of view access, but when I look at the form in App B, all of the fields appear blank even though they have data in them in the parent table in App A. I keep thinking I'm missing something simple. Thoughts/ideas?

    Uses will need View access to App A.  They need to be on the list of Users in App A.

      Thanks Mark! I'll double check but I'm fairly certain users in App B have view access to App A and are all on the User list. They can view the form - but it's blank for them as participants just as it is for myself and I'm an admin in both apps.  Feels like I'm missing something simple though.

         OK well that is a different story completely if you as the admin cannot see the look up fields. Have you been messing around with field level permissions? Have you perhaps messed up the field level permissions for Related Parent? 

        Is the child record in fact connected to a Parent?
