Hello,
I have a database and one of the combo boxes has a list of judges. The user
wants to be able to choose one or many names from the list. Is it possible
to set up check boxes within a combo box and have the multiple values
populate a form?

Thanks very much (I'm still a newbie to this)
 
No, you can't do that. First, you can't embed one control in another and
second, combo boxes do not have multi select capability.

What you want is a Multi Select list box. Then the user can just click on
the items they want to select. When you need to process what has been
selected, use the ItemsSelected collection of the list box. There is a great
example of how to use ItemsSelected in VBA Help.
