As you can see from the image, I want to add a drop down option to multiple records. Is that possible? If not I need to manually select for a lot of records…

How do I add a "multiple select" option to a group of records? (Pictures linked because this title is confusing)

You could also enter the single select option for the first record, and with that field selected either:
- Grab the dot at the bottom right corner and drag it down to auto-fill any other cells below it
OR
-
CMD/CTRL+Cto copy the value, then select all the other cells you want to fill andCMD/CTRL+Vto paste that same value into all the other cells at once

It is not possible to get a dropdown within a linked record field. In my experience, if you know what to link by heart, starting to type and then “enter” is probably the quickest way.
