Communicating with/to lists in SharePoint can be done many ways: - Client Object Model (COM) Add Microsoft.SharePoint.Client and Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.Runtime - Linq (Generate classes with SPMetal; regenerate if list fields changed) (strongly typed) - REST (add service service reference to listdata.svc; remove & re-add if list items changed) use link from list: /_vti_bin/listdata.svc/[list_name][/[list_field]][?$filter='speaker eq john'&$expand='room,track'] - Web Services - Business Connectivity Services (BCS - Available on SharePoint Server 2010 only) Thanks to Jorge Gonçalves (Rumos), Telmo Cruz (Microsoft) and Pedro Rosa for their great sessions at Tech Days 2010.

Yes, you can use CQWP. But ever tried Data Viewer Web Part? SPD, Insert, SharePoint Controls, Data View. Lets filter and sort everything with wizards and no code. Also, can use child lists in "Data Source Library" in the upper right pane, "Connect to another library..." link in the bottom. http://www.lcbridge.nl/vision/2009/dvwp.htm
