spfield

Hello!

I have a lookup field in sharepoint which just references another list. I wonder how do I programatically enumerate all possible values for this field? For example, my lookup field "Actual City" refers list "Cities" and column "Title", I have 3 cities there. In code I would like to get list of all possible values for field "Actual City", smth like (metacode, sorry):

SPFieldLookup f = myList["Actual City"]; Collection availableValues = f.GetAllPossibleValues(); //this should return collection with all cities a user might select for the field
