Default How can I create a form with a cascaded lookup?

When you mention combo boxes, do you actually mean list boxes?

The reason I ask is because I thought the multi-select property was only
supported for list boxes, not combo boxes.

Both the Knowledge Base article links you supplied are about list boxes.

i found these posts,, and think they might help but don't know exactly how
to tweak it to work for my needs of synching the combo boxes.

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/827423 - how to store the list as a string

a form

can anyone help me use this logic to synch my combo boxes?


I'm lost, Nancy. If you actually have a *combo* box bound to an Access
2007 multi-valued field, perhaps the combo displays multiple selections.
But I have no experience with that combination of features. WRT
multi-valued fields, I am following (my understanding of) MVP advice ...
don't use them.

If you clarify your situation, perhaps someone can offer useful help.
