Thanks Peter,

But is there any way to upload around 1000 Entries into a attribute
(Picklist).
as i am creating a new Picklist to add 1000 New Employees from around the
world in my CRM. how should add in one time.

Your early response will be much much appriciated. other wise i will start
manually but its very difficult to add one by one....

kindly help me.

Regards,
SAb.

Not as far as I know. Note that picklist with 1,000 attributes is extremely
difficult for users to use, and hard for you to maintain.

Better to implement a lookup

Hi Syed,

Customer fields are not supported by CRM, but
