Dynamically get an associated field?
This is a slightly convoluted scenario. I'll do my best to describe the situation. I have two tables with related but not identical data. The project number is the key in the Projects table and the...

- The data is in two tables, a Projects table using the project number as the key and an Activities table using the activity number as the key. The Activities table is a child of the Projects table. There are frequently multiple activities for each project. I need to find a way to get the location number from the activity into the Project table. While I'm talking about this relationship, I also need a way to associate the activity status of ALL activities to the project number. (this association would be based on the location number)

if you don't like the pill appearance, then there are easy formulas to change the appearance depending how you want the locations separated, like with a space or a comma space, or vertically separated.
