Body: <p>I remember there used to be an extension that would make the source field as a dropdown instead of an editable field, cant seem to remember how it's called! Anyone?</p>
  <p>EDIT: I think It’s the contribution source field. When adding a contribution this extension would make the source field a dropdown instead of a text. The dropdown would be the list picked up from existing data from contribution source field.</p>

Comments.Text: You mean filter the dropdown? or do you mean the source contact of an activity should be allowed to update on edit activity form?

Comments.Text: Do you mean the source field for the contact  (appearing at the top left of the summary tab). There are other fields called source (eg in contributions and memberships) so I think you need to provide a bit more information.

  Depending what you're trying to achieve, using campaigns is an alternative (which is already a dropdown) that may make sense.
