    you would check the value in the picklist and then hide and show the check boxes

    You can do this using javascript, these articles show you how

    Thanks Ben for the reply but I have done half of the work by creating multi select check boxes.Now I need to create 4 of these in 4 different sections.I will hide 3 of them and show 1 on selecting a particular value from the picklist.The picklist has 4 values.I know that I will have to write the js code on the onchange event.but it is not working.I am confused.

    Please advise how to proceed.Thanks in advance

    if you are using CRM 2013 you could use business rules.

    You say it isn't working but what isn't working.

    Can you hide the checkboxes

    don't forget to show and hide certain checkboxes when you change picklist value.

    You will probably need to hide them all onload, unless you have a default value.

    Thanks again Ben.I have created some sections.I am not able to hide them all on onload.I dont know the code.

    When I should select a value from a drop down a particular section needs to show on load.On any other value of a picklist some other section should show.The picklist by default has no value selected.

    I am using CRM 4.0.Thanks in advance
