## Nested Lookup
On top of the previous structure, let's introduce one more table - `Project` which contains `ProjectName` and each employee can be assigned with multiple projects. If we want to include the lookup column `TeamCode` from Employee in Project, we can create a nested lookup.

We can apply the same steps to create the lookup column `TeamCode` in table `Project`. This time we choose the lookup column created previously in table `Employee` as a child table.

Click save. Then `TeamCode` is populated in table `Project`.
