You can try this 

IF(Not(ISBLANK(Site)) && (ISBLANK(Description) || ISBLANK(Website)), true, false)

 

I have written this validation rule on account object.If Site is not blank then you should enter both Description and Website

 

Site is the field A

Description is the field B

Website is the field C

Hi,

If it is a picklist you can do a depended picklist.

 

If it is not you have basically two options:

1) Created a validation rule, when the user tries to save the record the validation will pop.

2) You could use JavaScript to validate the there are values in fields B \ C depends on the field A.

 

Option 1 is preferred since this is out-of-the-box option.

Option 2 requires more programming

 

I hope this helps,

Roy Gilad
