Hi,

My requirement is I have two drop downs in my crm form for Countries. Also i have an Entity Countries, It has countryname and country official name. In my drop down1 i want to populate all the country names from the Countries entity. When the value in Dropdown1 changes i have to populate the Country Official name in dropdown1.

I am not sure as to how to dynamically populate values from entity into a drop down list

Hi Somi,

You need to develop a webserice which fetches the picklist's values from your custom entity and than call that webservice in your onLoad or onChange event on entity's form. Using JScript fill or delete values from your picklist. Following URLs will help you on this;
