Copy Existing Data in a Picklist to a MultiValue Field in ADO #178

Closed lewisaje closed 2 years ago

lewisaje commented 2 years ago

I have a custom picklist field that I would like to be a multi-value field. I have the multi-value-control extension. There are many work items with existing values. I want the current values in the picklist to be in the multi-value field. So the queries I have are:

  1. Can the multi-value control be applied to a current picklist field with the current data retained?
  2. Or is there an easy way to copy the current value of the picklist to a new multi-value field?

On further analysis, I discovered that the current data in a picklist field is retained when a multi-value control is applied.
