I think you want to display the "assigned_to" value from a different table??
For that, you need to check the Override display value and get the assigned_to from another table.

Can you suggest , how to get the assigned_to field from another table .

Ex:When case is assigned to some person in case table , the custom task table should also need to populate the same assigned to value .

Note:Both different table contains assigned_to field.

If there are multiple values that you want to use from u_test to set u_result, I invite you to take a look at Data Lookup Rules. It's how priority lookups work with Impact and Urgency and Assignment Rules work with category and other criteria. You can specify your own on just about any table as long as the input and output fields are on the same table. I covered them briefly in episode 12 of TechNow.
