hey ketan,
i have one object account and this are the field i wana create one rule and the criteria is ::::
:::::::: mobilemodule type (fieldttype::text)=pc789
:::::::: active start mode ((field type :picklist and option are disabled , derated and normal operation) = disabled (selected)
:::::::: active tamper level ((field type:picklist and option are tamperlevel1 ,tamperlevel2,tamperlevel3)= tamperlevel1(selected)

in this case it allows the user to enter the data in salesforce only ....

.if user select active start mode =derated or normal option and tamperlevel=tamperlevel2 or tamperlevel3 salesforce not allow to user to enter the data in salesforce...

Hi Mike try this validation rule, Change field name according your fields API name.
AND(mobilemodule__c <> "pc789", TEXT(active_start_mode__c) <> "disabled" , TEXT(active_tamper_level__c) <> "tamperlevel1")

Hey Ketan

Sorry mike my fault, I used AND Condition. I should have used OR 
 
OR(mobilemodule__c <> "pc789", TEXT(active_start_mode__c) <> "disabled" , TEXT(active_tamper_level__c) <> "tamperlevel1")

If you want to execute this validation only for new records and not for existing records then you should use this.
 
AND(OR(mobilemodule__c <> "pc789", TEXT(active_start_mode__c) <> "disabled" , TEXT(active_tamper_level__c) <> "tamperlevel1"),  ISNEW() )

Hey Ketan
If i want to select active tamper level= disabled or normaloperation and rest of the things same what should be new validate rule???
Ketankumar PatelKetankumar Patel
You should use AND Condition for active_start_mode__c and use one of each value of both comparison.
 
OR(mobilemodule__c <> "pc789", AND(TEXT(active_start_mode__c) <> "disabled",TEXT(active_start_mode__c) <> "normal operation")  , TEXT(active_tamper_level__c) <> "tamperlevel1")
