Can I change the label on an extended task field?

I have created a new application called Legal which extends the Task table. I want to use several Task fields but was hoping to change the labels on the Legal form. As far as I can see this isn't possible. Any idea how I can do it? I don't want to have to create new fields where I don't need to. Thanks

Hi, You can do the same.Right Click on field-->Personalize dictionary...


then at the bottom we have the Label section at bottom..



Create New..enter your Table name and type new label and insert the same.



Hope this will help.



And if you want label to be changed dynamically please refer SNGuru link:

Let me know if it helps.


Thanks, but I don't have a New button. Reading that link I found you can Insert an entry and edit it, however when I change the table in the new entry it disappears and has no affect on the label.


Sorry, typo error..there is no New button, you can go there and select the existing record..and change the table name and label name and dont change the other values and right click on header and click Insert. Hope this help and let me know.


Thanks, finally got it to work, much appreciated
