[Vtigercrm-developers] non-role-based picklist editor

[Asha]

Hi Adam,

There is another better way to achieve this by using vtlib api.

Get vtlib field instance and call setPicklistValues on that field to add
new values.

For more details on achieving this, please refer to the vtlib documentation
here<http://trac.vtiger.com/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/wiki/CreatingEntityModule#Step3:AddingFields>
