Hello Raja,

 

This can not be done without programming. You need to implement it with visualforce pages.

Yes the same, for e.g. i have list of countries where we have other also in value if i select other automatically text box should be appeared so we can provide details in text box and it will insert in DB.

 

Thanks and Regards

Hi,

 

Agree with Vinita that you need to do some programming to achieve exactly same requirement. However, if you want to have this functionality without programming and if you can compromise bit on user experience, you can have validation rule that if user select "Other" from drop-down list, make other field required and keep this field always on page layout.

 

Please let me know if you need help on this.

 

Happy to help you!
