SharePoint Profile Lookup

Question

Question is not on StackOverflow because I am not a developer and hope there is a way to do this without code :)

In SharePoint 2007, is it possible to have a list column do a lookup against a SharePoint Profile?

I would like to be able to create a list with a Person/Group column, and then once I add a user, have the list autopopulate a few columns (such as Manager) pulled from that user’s profile in SharePoint. Is that something that can be done OOB?

Answer 1

No, unfortunately there is not a "List" in the normal SharePoint sense of things that stores all the users.

There is not a webservice call that will get all the profiles in one hit either, so something would need to be programmed.
