You'll have a form with at least two submit buttons. One to submit the form, and another to lookup some other data. You'll probably use a LookupDispatchAction (or something similar) to map each submit button to different methods in your Action class. The lookup method will lookup the data, store it into your ActionForm (using session scope), and then forward to the page that displays the data.
