Integrating dynamic picklist to existing custom object

Hi,

I have a custom picklist created using visualforce page and apex. And its working very well in the visualforce page created. Now i wish to integrate it with my project in one of the custom object (Applications). This picklist will serve as a normal picklist there along with other fields already present there to take the input and save the record.

Please help.


Regards,

Nidhi

You can do achieve this by writing a validation rule that verifies that a picklist value is selected on insert and update. This should ensure that a value is always associated to that field.

Something like
  
ISPICKVAL(My_Value__c,'')
where My_Value__c is the API name of your picklist field. I hope this helps.

Hi Gaurav,

Can you please elaborate it further. I am still not able to achieve it.

 

Basically, I have a dynamic picklist fully working. But its on a visualforce page. I want it to be displayed on a custom object 'edit page'.

Same picklist, just on custom object edit page.
