    I wanted to create a list and then have a link in that list which upon clicking would take the user to a document library and show only some documents which are related to that list.How can this be done out of box?

    Hi shrawn,

    I understand that you want to add a link to a list, which is pointing to a library containing some related documents.

    You can go to the target list(e.g. http://server/site/Lists/listA/AllItems.aspx), click Site Actions->Edit Page and add a Content Editor Web Part, then you can add the link pointing to a document library new custom view filtering the related documents or a document library folder containing the related documents.

    Thanks

    Ok,but it needs to be automated like each time I create a new item in th elist with an identifier and create a set of documents with the same identifier in the library there should be a link created automatically in the list item that would take the user to the set of documents in the library.
