So Let's go ahead.

Step by Step-> Create Lookup Site Column in a parent site(root website)

  • Go to Site Action then Site Settings
  • Click on Site Columns in Web Designer Galleries

  • Click on Create and Create a new Site Column

  • Type in a Distinguished name and Select the type in this column is Lookup

  • Put this site column into Existing group.for example Custom Columns

  • Select a List/Library as information source

  • Check it Whether Exist in Custom Columns Group

  • Add my Site Column to any list/library you would like to use it with.Just Click on List Settings on Ribbon Menu.

  • Click on add from existing site columns

  • Select site columns form custom columns

  • Success.Look up column looking for values of a list/library on another parent site.

Note:When you click hyperlink . Unfortunately get a error "List does not exist.The page you selected contains a list that does not exist. It may have been deleted by another user".

To Fix this error,just install the latest update of sharepoint and the bug will disappeared.
