Edit a choice list

This tutorial shows you how to update the Functional Area choice list. The Functional Area field is used in the BugTrk project to categorize an issue (for example, what area of the application does it apply to? UI? database access?). When you create a new project based on the sample BugTrk project, you need to update the Functional Area choice list to reflect the functional areas, or modules, of your application.
