hi Engy, you can't modify or delete standard field but you can create new field. if you want to hide standard field then follow below. Go to the fields which you want to hide and select there link and select the Set Field-Level Security button and uncheck the Visible checkbox for the profiles you do not want to see those particular fields.
Thank you, Abhinav! So what is the best solution in this case? Can I delete the Standard Field "Type" and create another custom one with the same name or what? Basically, I need a field called "Type" to be a Multi Picklist in the "Account" Obj. Please advise.
