[AccessD] Extended Combobox Questions

[Stuart McLachlan]

How do you create a multi-select combobox? I've never seen a combobox in Access that has 
a multi-select property.

OTOH, multi-select is a standard property of listboxes.

You can just step through the list and build your string with something like:

Dim strCriteria As String
Dim x As Long
For x = 0 To List1.ListCount - 1
        If List1.Selected(x) Then
            strCriteria = strCriteria & "," & List1.Column(0, x)
        End If
    Next
strCriteria = "IN (" & Mid$(strCriteria, 2) & ")"
MsgBox strCriteria
