Hello,

Im trying to build a new table using fields from an exisiting table . I have a field on the exisitng table that has a choice list of 145 different choices.

I 'd like to copy over these 145 choices to the field on the the new table . How can I achieve this?

If the new table needs the same fields from an existing table, create the new table by extending the existing one. They will share the same fields.

I agree with Roberts suggestion of an extended table. There is another option that will essentially work in the same way. I am not positive if it works with scoped applications though.



When you are editing the new choice field on the new table, there are options to use choices from another table. If a choice is added, changed, or removed from the choice list, it will show on the field that is sharing the choices as well.
