Can you change the drop down list for History?

[Kelly]

I want to add another option under the "Results" drop down menu in the Record History.  Will ACT! 2009 allow me to do this?

You do that by creating a custom activity.

Thanks for the information. I created the custom activity, but it still does not allow me to just click on the "record histroy" and find that new option.  Here's a bit more info. I am not creating history from a scheduled activity. I am going to the history tab and selecting "record history". Then I choose "other".  The options in the "result" drop down list are the ones I want to add to.

RESOLVED.  Your instructions did work.  Sorry about that.  I was looking in the wrong "type" field.  Thanks so much for your excellent help!!!

Hi Guys,

I have this exact problem, however when I go into "Activity Types" the option for "Other" isn't there!?! Any ideas.

When I click on the History tab I choose "Other" and then in the result field I have a drop down of choices, I just need to add another choice to this list, any ideas!?

Thanks for looking!

Mitch.
