link external sharepoint lists
Hi, I have two web applications with site collections. Is it possible to show a list from a site collection to another site collection like an external list (not in the same Web app) without using an event handler or custom code ? Regards, Nicolas.

Hi, You can configure content query webpart to do the same, provided the account you are using has access to both the locations. You can refer this link http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint-designer-help/display-data-from-multiple-lists-with-the-content-query-web-part-HA010174134.aspx I hope this will help you out.

Hi, thanks for your answer. But I can not find how to select the site collection (other web app) in the content query web part. Is it realy possible to use this web part if web sites are not in the same web app ? Thanks, Nico.
