hi

I'm a .Net programmer who all of the sudden needs to do a litte work in
Access 2003.
It's quite straight forward, except for one thing:

how do I do a ListBox with multi-select functionality?
Is it possible at all in Access?

thx
 
In the properties of the list box, on the Other tab, set the Multi Select
property to either Simple or Extended.
 
What do you want to do with it? While, as you were told elsethread, it's a
simple matter to change the MultiSelect property, a multiselect list box is
very different than a non-multiselect one. For one thing, you cannot bind a
multiselect list box to a field. You also cannot refer to the control to get
the selected value: you have to use VBA code to loop through its
ItemsSelected collection.
