I'm working with the External Item Picker ![Image]()
and just do not see how to properly pre-populate it with an existing value. I tried in vain to use $().SPServices.SPFindPeoplePicker but that of course was just wishing upon a star. It sure looks like the People Picker, but apparently isn't the same thing at all.
Is there a means of filling in a default on that External Item Picker, or an SPServices function that would assist in that task?
