Limit Multi-Picklist

I hope someone can help me out here

 

I want to limit the amount of picklist options that can be choosen in a multi-picklist.  

 

For examble I have a multi-picklist that has 10 choices listed but I want the Sales Agent rep to beable to only choose 3.

 

Is there a valdation rule that can do this?  

 

Thanks in advance for all your help

Yes, a validation rule would help you acheive this. You would give a point for each selection and then add up all the points.
In case the sum is greater than 3 in your case, the validation rule return true and then you get the error message.
