Multiple Select

I can select multiple values in my form but those values
will not write back to the main table.

Help!

Thanks,

Perhaps a bit more explanation as to what you are trying to do would be
helpful.

I have a list box, in my table, with multiple values and
the goal is for the user to be able to select a
combination of those values and have those values write
back to the master table.

I have the MultiSelect Property set to Simple and in the
form, I am able to select as many values as needed.
However, those values are not saved and written back to
the master table.

So, the question is not just why aren't they writing back
to the table but how can this be corrected.

Well no: they'd need to be written back to a Child table; one record for
each Master-Value pair. This is how relational databases work.

Hope that helps
