Here is a sample I did when I found some OLD web2py forums. I tested with a
dictionary then
with a "in" DB ..
In controller/default.py:

def company_login():
    # Read the company file into a dictionary
    company =
db(db.company).select(db.company.company_number,db.company.company_name,orderby=db.company.company_name)

    # Create a form using the sets
    form = SQLFORM.factory(
        Field('username', requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY()),
        Field('password', 'password', requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY()),
        Field('Company',
requires=IS_IN_DB(db,db.company.company_number,'%(company_name)s')))
#        Field('Company', requires=IS_IN_SET(company)))

# Note: IS_IN_SET is fugly, anyone know a way to "format" it for display?

    if form.process().accepted:
#       redirect(URL('index'))
       response.flash = 'form accepted'
    elif form.errors:
       response.flash = T('form has errors')

    return dict(form=form)

In views/default/company_login.html :

{{extend 'layout.html'}}
{{=form}}


-------------------------------------------------
Ok, my NEXT questions along this thread:
I need to display the values returned from the sqlform, any ideas on this ?

thanks ..
