Using Sharepoint 2010 to view items from two different libraries
I am using SharePoint 2010 and would like to display information from a Site Pages library and a Documents library based upon an identical field name that is contained in both libraries. My thought was to tie the information together based upon this one field and create a view. I have tried a Content Query WebPart, but cannot figure out how to connect information from each library into one view.
Is this possible to do this? If so, what approach should I start with? Even though I am a developer to this particular SharePoint site, the farm administrators have disabled the use of SharePoint Designer. So I cannot use that tool as a resource.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Debbie,
The scripts should be placed in Site Assets library, and could be surfaced as a reference in CEWP as you suggest.
Scripts will run under the permissions of the user viewing the page, if they have permissions to the source libraries, no issues.

Jamie -- if I were to use your solution, how are the functions called. As with all my css, I have them in a text file and "call" the scripts via a content editor webpart. Would this be the same scenario by placing the code in a text file and "calling" these functions via a content editor webpart?
Rainer -- I have actually looked at using jquery. Would the library be uploaded to the "site assets" library? I currently have my css files in that library and reading other articles, this seems the place to place these type of documents. What I am not sure about is the permissions level the "farm" administrators have dumbed down the site administrators. Currently I cannot even grant permissions to users.
If there are other areas I could be looking at, please let me know.
Thanks
Debbie
