The following table describes properties that Siebel CRM uses with a pick list.

Property	Description
Bounded (O)	If TRUE, then the user must use a value from the list of values that the drop-down list contains.
Business Component (R)	Specifies the name of the business component that Siebel CRM uses to populate values in the list of values.
Long List (O)	If TRUE, then Siebel CRM attempts to position the cursor on the current value in a long list of values. If the Long List property is TRUE, then the picklist returns a large set of values. To avoid affecting performance when the user scrolls or positions the cursor on the current value in the field, Siebel CRM does not immediately update field values for the current record. If the picklist contains more than 500 records, then it is recommended that you set the Long List property to TRUE.
