Text field dependency
Hi,
iam new to salesforce and have been learning for past 1 month. i wonder how to create dependency field for textbox.
for example: i have a picklist with 2 values
1.Nurse
2.Doctor
If i choose doctor
following textfields should be active.
1.operation details
2.patient to operate on
3.type of operation etc,..
can anyone explain me clearly, to understand it easily
Hi You can create like the depedency fields
First create one field(Data type' Pick list')[here let say fields name 'Hospital' values are 1.nurse,2.values]
create anther field(data type multi pick list) [here field name 'position' values
1.operation details
2.patient to operate on
3.type of operation etc,..
4.something
]
after creating these values in the custom filed and relation ship you can see "Filed dependency "
clcik on that select new after you can see two fields controlling filed dependent field
here in the place of controlling select hospital field and in the place of dependent field select position
after it will open all the values select which values you want show for doctor and nurse ,and click include values and save.

hi venkatesh,
i think you didn't get my point.
from the begining iam asking " How to create Field Dependency between TEXTFIELD and PICKLIST"
You can't create a dependency in the sense of 'enabling' or 'disabling' the text field. You can create a validation Rule that makes sure there is a value in a text field when a picklist choice has been made.
hi Jeff,
Thanks for your timely help...
Mrithula, since you say you're new, I just wanted to make sure you understand what venkateshyadav is getting at.
The native/out-of-the-box functionality for dependent picklists in Salesforce is limited to either a picklist or a checkbox as the controller and only a picklist can be the dependent. You cannot, using Salesforce's default functionality, build something like what you are suggesting. I'm not sure I understand exactly what you would like to do, but if you want to do something such as activating certain fields, you'll need to build a custom visualforce page.
Hi All,
You can render any field based on picklist value in VF Page....but you cant do this using standard functionality.
<apex:pageBlockSectionItem rendered="{!method.picklist_field=='Hospital'}">
<apex:outputLabel value="Label/>
<apex:inputField id="InputField" value="{!method.Textfield}"/>
</apex:pageBlockSectionItem>
Thanks
Sumit
can you elaborately explain the requirement??
