Editing values in dropdown fields

[edanb]

I am unable to use the dropdown editor due to a bug in the version of sugar that I am using. Unfortunately due to non upgrade-safe coding, I cannot upgrade sugar at this time.

How can I make changes to dropdown field values through code instead of the dropdown editor?
I have found a file custom/include/language/en_us.lang.php which includes the dropdown values that I want to edit, but when I change them, save and quick repair, nothing changes.

How can I do this?

Thanks!

Hello,
In the file custom/include/languages/en_lang.php you have to add the required fields which you wish to appear in the drop down and then only save and try to check if you are getting the added fields in the drop down.

Yeah but he says it's not working.

Sugar is quite aggressive with caching. Try running in developer mode so that it refreshes.
