I have a listbox on my form that gets its values from a sharepoint list. For
normal users of the form, the values are filtered.

I would like to have the filter go away for specific users. I'm stuck on how
to accomplish this.

Can I programmatically change the filter that is on the values of a drop
down list?

Create a user role for your "power users" (Tools-->User Roles), add them to
the user role.
You might have to create first a "generic" user role and make it "Default".
Then duplicate your list and display/hide it based on the user role (if not
the list, then put it on a section that could be displayed based on user
role)...
