I&amp;#39;m trying to create a reasonably simple hardware asset database.  

The first issue I&amp;#39;ve run into is when I try and create a drop down list on a InfoPath form that looks up a field on another list that also happens to be a lookup field.  Instead of pulling back text, it pulls back a number, which I believe is the ID?  I think this also affects my lookup fields that try and use one of those fields as a filter.  The field displays no data, because I don&amp;#39;t think the number is being considered a match of the text.

any advice would be greatly appreciated!  I tried to keep the question as generic as possible to be of use to others.  But I&amp;#39;d be happy to provide specific details and screenshots.
