Open a text field when picklist choice is "Other"

Picklist has three choices, the last one of which is "Other".  If "Other" is chosen, open the next field to enter data.  So the text field is invisible unless "other" is chosen in the picklist, at which time it appears and user sees instructions to enter the "Other" data.

HI,

 

It can be done thru VF page, or you want to do it thru config, then create two record type and assign to two diff page layout, create workflow ,when user chose "others" then record type will change, and so page layout, in that page layout add that text box. Let me know if you need more info.

 

regards,

Hi, you need probably a dependent picklist.

Here is the manual: http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/pages/Content/pages_quick_start_dependent_picklists.htm
