How to Auto Create A Text Field After A Choice in the Combo Box Has Been Selected

New Here ,
Dec 15, 2019 Dec 15, 2019

Hi there. I have this problem which desperately requires your expertise. I have a combo box with 5 options, 1) Acceptable, 2) Damaged, 3) Pitted, 4) Dent, 5) Peeloff. If the user chooses Option 2,3,4 or 5, I would like to pop up a text field, in which the user can provide their comments (dimension).

Is it possible to execute this? Thank you so much for the help
