What is the correct tool for making forms that can update a SQL Server table with related tables

$

I have a table called procedure codes with a foreign key column categoryCd and another foreign key GroupCd. I want the form to show the CategoryDescription and GroupDescription from the related tables in the forms combobox and return the code as the value to go into the Procedure code table. I have set up each table as an external content type. But now I am stuck trying to get a form to show the lookups. Infopath said I am only allowed to connect to one external data source. I've tried setting up associations. But I  I was only allowed to setup one association to the parent table. At another forum I was told I should ping Fabian Williams. His response was to use MVC\Forms. I am fine with trying to figure that out, it just seems like these relations are simple enough that the form could be built in SPD or Infopath.
