Hi

is there a difference in meaning in the sentence below when something or anything is used :

"if there is (something/anything) wrong in the form, please let me know"

Thanks.

If you use "something", it means you have the feeling there may be something wrong indeed in the form. With "anything", you think there is nothing wrong, or you don't know whether there's anything wrong.
