Tell us what you are trying to do? I have a form where several fields are checkboxes to be able to choose several options.
When doing the search form, I don't like the result. I want to change the checkboxes to dropdown.
I've been looking for an answer in the forum but I haven't found anything.
Could you help me?.
I have no idea of programming, if you can give me an example of what to put in the View I would appreciate it.

Is there any documentation that you are following?

Is there a similar example that we can see? Cred Form :hidden link
search form: hidden link

If this is a checkboxes custom field you cannot display it as anything other than a checkboxes field in a form.

You can, however, display it as a multi-select when used as a filter in a View.

If using the block editor, you can switch to multiselect in the settings for that filter.

If using legacy Views you can modify the shortcode that outputs the filter to set the type attribute to multi-select (see https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/views/views-shortcodes/#wpv-control-postmeta)
