Default MultiSelect List Box (pre Access 2007)

I see where you're going with that and it is a nice solution. Where it falls
down for me is that my records appear in a continuous form and when I tried
that with your sample the information doesn't appear correctly (only the
currently selected records choices show for all records).

sample called "ListboxSubform.mdb" which illustrates how to do something
like (although not exactly like) this. You can download it for free he

...
I want to achieve (in Access 2003) what the built-in function in Access
2007
does by allowing users to select multiple items in a combo box or list
box.
See http://office.microsoft.com/en-ca/ac...311171033.aspx.

An example
-client table (Client ID, Company Name)
-issues table (IssueID, ClientID, Issue Description, Staff Affected)

I want users to be able to select multiple 'Staff Affected' in the issues
table. I don't want to create a third table for staff affected because I
want
to keep my data entry form fairly simple. The Access 2007 solution would
be
perfect but the problem is... if I convert to Access 2007, I lose all my
user-level security :-(.

The final result is that I want to run a query to see how many issues
affect
Mary, how many issues affect Joe, etc.

Any ideas?
