How do I set up a list box where I can chose more than one item?

I am trying to create a list box for a variable in which the user could pick
more than one item from the list.

Is there a way to do it other than creating subdatasheets for that variable?

Thanks,
Ed

Ed,
A list box has 3 selection modes... None, Simple, and Extended. Simple
and Extended allow for multiple entries.
Check out Multi Select Property in Help for info and examples

Check the properties of the listbox. Depending on which version of Access
you are using, you can set the "Multi-select" property to handle this.

NOTE: You would then have to come up with the code to handle iterating
through the list to identify WHICH rows were selected.
