Hi all,


I currently have a Smart Object built that pulls data from a Sharepoint list.  However, one of the columns in the list has a set of values that can be selected via drop down.  The Smart Object doesn't seem like it can handle this natively (in the version I'm using anyway), and I think I need to create a 2nd Smart Object just to pull this list of values, and then link this 2nd Smart Object to the 1st.


The linking part seems straightforward, but I cannot figure out how to create this 2nd Smart Object so it will pull in the appropriate values.


Any suggestions?


Thanks in advance.

I've seen an answer to this in the past (at this link), but you may be better off using a Static List of options for your View/Form drop down and remembering to keep it synced up with the Choice column on your SharePoint list.  


Not the best solution, but K2 doesn't support getting the Choice values from a column because it just treats the column as type Text.
