select Single Selection Menu from drop down menu. now edit the details

(A)Title: Country
(B)Discription: Where are you from?.
(C)Profile Field Category: it shuld be checked
(D)Options: just copy and paste all flag names from the text file named "Country list" in this field.
(E)Set Default:None and save the settings.
(F)Display Order: which is usuall "field5" etc. but remember yr field number which is the display order number.
(G)Field Required: Yes, at registration and profile updating.
(H)Field Editable by user: Yes
(I)Private Field: Check No
