Selecting Multiple items from a drop down list

[Guest]

I am sending out trucks for orders. Sometime the order calls for 8 trucks
sometimes just 1. I'm not sure how to set up the form. I have a drop down
for truck#'s. I would like to select for example 8 different trucks from the
ONE drop down - or if 8 trucks are typed in could it generate 8 dropdown
lists- not sure how to proceed. I may select 8 different trucks, 4 same + 4
different, or 8 same - or any variation of that.

Please let me know,
Barb

Is there any way to color code trucks from the list box after they have been
selected. Once you would select multiple trucks for a given order. Not sure
where or how to store the multiple trucks.

Thanks,
Barb

What are you looking for? There is no way that I am aware of to color list
box items other than the default selected and not selected colors. Stephen
Lebans generally makes these things possible so you could search his site
www.lebans.com.

If you only need to create a query that uses a multi-select list box to
filter records there are lots of samples on the web including there is a
generic function at
