** Kelly,
I think you should be OK because instead of going through the SRD question 
creation process, you can go to App Admin console, Custom, Service Request 
Management, Application Configuration, and then Define Questions Library. That 
opens up the form: SRM:QuestionDef_Template
If you manually enter a question and run logging, you should be able to see if 
there are any Push Fields actions to any other supporting form. I don't really 
think there is but I could be wrong. If there isn't, I don't see why you 
wouldn't be able to import questions to this. I am just not sure where the 
static menu options are stored.
Hope this helps a little bit.

I should have been more specific, John, thanks for clarifying - I want to be 
able to update menus attached to Request fields. It seems like the 'library' 
should be a good option, but I'm not seeing much documentation on it so I what 
I would like to know is if anyone has tried to manage by importing items 
directly and if there are any 'gotcha's like data that is kept in a secondary 
form that has to be coordinated.

For example, I have a field that will be in several forms like "Salary Grade" 
that is not currently in the ITSM data, and I want to load menu items for it. I 
type them in to the question definition on the 'Question Management' form, and 
hit 'Update Library' to create a standard "Salary Grade" question and menu. A 
month later, several new salary grades are created. I would like to be able to 
import the new items into the system to add the new menu items automatically.

There are several fields/menus like this and I'd like to keep them up to date 
with an automated feed. I'd prefer to use the 'Library' since it's already 
available and would not require creating an extra form to query. So that's why 
I was wondering if anyone else had tried.

I would recommend creating a custom generic Menu Items form that I can use
for any data driven menu.

Thanks
