Hi Everyone,
I'm brand new to the group. I have a question about Multiple Selection
List Boxes. I did a search in the archives, but found quite a few
topics about Multi-select list boxes, but none of them answered my,
very basic, question.
I want to create a list box for a "Race" field on my form that allows
the user to choose more than one race category. I have the Race field
in my main table that is bound to another table with the 5 racial
categories. I created a list box on my form which contains the 5
linked racial categories and selected Extended in the Multiple
Selection section of the list box properties.
By doing this I was allowed to select multiple races in the list box,
but the information was not saved in the underlying table. From
looking through the archives in this group I now know that there is
some underlying programming that needs to occur, but I couldn't find a
topic that specifically addresses what the underlying programming is...
So basically I just need to know the proper steps to make a basic, yet
functional, list box..
any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!
