Abhishek Nagaraj Trigger on Checking the Check Box.
I have a situation as below.
I have an object OBJECT 1 and couple of fields in it. Two Fields among them are Field1 [Check Box] and Field2 [Date Field]. When I create a new record for OBJECT 1, I want Field2 to be read only and on checking the Field 1 to true, I want Field 2 to be visible and Editable. I tried using WF rules but It didn't work as the rules applied only after saving the record. I want while filling the details while creating new record.
Flow would be,
1: Click New Record Button on Object 1
2: You see Field 2 is read only.
3: You check Field 1 to true
4: And you want Field 2 to be visible and editable now.
5: User picks the date in Field 2 and saves the record.
I beleive it is possible using Triggers But I want help in creating and achieveing using Triggers. I am asking this as I am two weeks old in Salesforce :-)

Abhi

For this you would need a VisualForce page, rendered, rerender functions in visualforce page. Here is the example VF page.
<apex:page > <apex:form > <apex:pageBlock Title="pgBlock"> <apex:pageBlockSection id="pageBlksect"> <!-- check box field --> <apex:inputField value="{!Object1.CheckboxField1}" id="checkedone"> <apex:actionSupport event="onclick" rerender="pageBlksect"/></apex:inputCheckbox> <!-- Date field --> <apex:inputField value="{!Object1.DateField2}" rendered="{!Object1.Field1}"> </apex:pageBlockSection> </apex:pageBlock> </apex:form> </apex:page>refer below links for more info on rendering,
