Create new field in task table

[snowuser111]

HI,

I want to create new fields in task table. Reason is so that i can use in all other tables which is extending since almost all tables extends from task.

But how do I create any new field in task.I went to tables & columns, task->edit table->inser new row but it seems it takes pretty long time and gets cancelled .

Any idea how can I get this done please.

Thanks

Sorry Pradeep, I am not open this thread. But I tested and it works fine for me.

If performance is such a mess, the following can be a stop gap approach to do so (Please keep in mind, i myself wouldn't do this if the above options work.):-

Hi,

Try to create field from sys_dictionary table.

otherwise open any other table which is opening quickly and change the show records to 10 records.

right click on the header-->choose show-->10 rows per page.

Now open task table.I think,the page will load quickly and you can create record from list layout.

Thanks,
Alex
