How to make fields active / inactive with radio button options ?
Scenario is like this , there is layout in that layout I have nine different fields and one radio button with three diffrent options.
When I choose Option 1 then, first three fields( Field 01 , Field 02 , Field 03) should be active and last six fields (Field 04 , Field 05 , Field 06 ,Field 07 , Field 08 , Field 09) should be inactive (or locked or hidden ).
When I choose Option 2 then, first three fields( Field 01 , Field 02 , Field 03) and last three fields (Field 07 , Field 08 , Field 09) should be inactive (or locked or hidden ). and middle three fields should be active (Field 04, Field 05, Field 06 ) for data entry.
When I choose Option 3 then, first six fields( Field 01 , Field 02 , Field 03 , Field 04 , Field 05 , Field 06) should be inactive (or locked or hidden ) and last three fields should be active (Field 07, Field 08, Field 09 ) for data entry.
I’m having hard time making script please make me a script.

true, but may become too much if the amount of conditions grow further later on??.
I think the multi-layout solution, though less smart in theory, is easier to maintain, and that should never be forgotten when you'll have to modify in a 2 years time. Also, layouts can be changed on the fly, while field definitions request you disconnect users, quite a problem in many places.

No, no no - Field definitions? You should use a value list and the contents of a value list can be based on field contents. In fact a database I was working on it was very practical to have valued lists in a related database - anyone could then define the contents of the popup. Gives new kinds of possibilities - and even better reg. maintainance!

this way, ok. I thought you wanted to list all conditions in that same layout. an external table is of course that right way for long lists.
Option1, Field 1
Option1, Field 2
Option1, Field 3
Option2, Field 1
Option2, Field 2
Option2, Field 3
Option2, Field 6
Option2, Field 7
Option2, Field 8
Option3, Field...etc.
Quite effective.
