Multiple select listbox not holding on to values

[LoriInMD]

Hello. I created a multiple select (extended) listbox field in my table and
then selected it from my field list to add to my form. When I select values
in the listbox and then move on to the next record, the field does not hold
on to the values I selected. That field in my table is also blank. I know I'm
missing something big here...what should my next step be after creating my
listbox field?

Thank you.

There's some confusion in your terminology. Listboxes are a type of control
used on forms. Multi-select (extended) listboxes cannot be usefully bound
to a single field in your table. See below for using an unbound
multi-select listbox as criteria in a query.
