Ummmm, every version I've seen, though I don't have 2007 on anything anymore. A Listbox is a combobox, that doesn't drop down, so you see multiple items. In fact, listboxes and comboboxes are functionally identical with that one exception. Both have column count properties. If you are trying to create data in multiple columns with a string datasource (Value List), you set the column count, then put in the data, like this: Columncount=3 DataString"1,2,3,2,3,4,3,4,5" Would produce a listbox of: 1 2 3 2 3 4 3 4 5 Of course, I personally recommend callback functions over value lists anytime!

Try lining up the data when you build the string for each row out of multiple bits.
