You can create a table.
Then create some fields including presumably a text field to identify the record and then a bunch of check box field types fields to allow the user to check off the boxes either on a form, or in grid edit mode.

I would like to do it in the same form as a part of the table.It has only 4 options.

Do you want the form itself to have an embedded table on it or do you just need to just create 4 checkbox fields on your record.

I recently had a situation where we thought that we needed checkboxes in a table, in the end we found that using appropriately named multiselect text boxes worked much better.  Think about your use case and see if a multiselect field per row or per column would solve your data gathering needs before you head down the road of creating a large matrix of checkboxes. 

Maybe this wont work for your case, but if it does it will be easier to implement and likely be a cleaner interface for the user.
