The Style field enables you to specify how a field is displayed on a Profile screen. You can select the following styles:
Adds a check box next to the field name, which enables or disables a setting. For example, use a check box for the Enable User field. If the check box is selected, the user account is enabled. If the check box is clear, the user account is disabled.
Adds a check box next to each option for a field. Users can select multiple options from the option list.
Displays a calendar icon next to a date field, such as Start Date. Administrators click the calendar icon to display a calendar control where they can select the date they want.
Allows the user to select a value for the field. Only one value is visible. Users click an arrow to see additional values in the list.
The user can select a single value from the list.
Provides the same choice of values displayed by a Drop Down style, but adds a text box where the user can enter a new value.
Displays a control for selecting a group.
Retrieves the field's value from the user store, but the field's label and value are not displayed on the task screen.
Hidden fields are used for logical attributes. (See the chapter on Logical Attributes in the Programming Guide for Java.)

In a Multi-Select box, the possible values for the field are visible in the list box. Users can select multiple values from the list.
A Multi-Select box can be used only to display fields associated with a multi-valued attribute.

If the field's permission is read only, the value is displayed as a label.
