I have been battling about with some selection fields and can't get them to work. Whenever I add them to my views it gives me XML erorr. So something must be wrong.
Does anybody has a guide for this?
Thank you

Note with the new api you define a Selection field as follows:
from openerp import api, models, fields
class YourModel(models.Model):
_name = 'your.model'
my_selection_field = fields.Selection([('option1', 'Label 1'), ('option2', 'Label 2')], string='My Selection Field')
Using the new style gives the benefit of being able to extend the selection list by inheriting and redefining as follows:
my_selection_field = fields.Selection(selection_add=[('option3', 'Label 3')])
Maybe it is faster if you post your snippet. In general you need these two part to create a selection field:
_columns = { 'my_selection_field': fields.selection([("code1", "Value 1"), ("code2", "Value 2")), string='My Selection Field')}
and include it in the view.
