Want a computed field to show whether or not a field value exists in 
another table

started with this...

db.define_table(
    'inventory',
    Field('name'),
    Field('qty', label='Quantity'),
    Field('MatSize',label='Material Size'),
    format = '%(name)s') 

db.define_table(
    'POrequest',
    Field('name', 'reference requestor', label='Requestor'),
    Field('JobNum', 'reference jobs', label='Job #'),
    Field('description', 'text', notnull=True),    
    Field('InInventory', compute=lambda r: r['description'] IN 
r[db.inventory.name]),  <<< this row right here is what I need help with
    format = '%(name)s')

trying to verify row by row in a computed field if db.POrequest.description 
is in any row of db.inventory.name

help please.
