data validation/drop down menus
Is it possible to select more than one option from a drop-down list within
the same cell? How would you set that up?

"cells" are in Excel -- is this an MS Access question?
You posted in a tablesdbdesign newsgroup for MS Access. If this is a question about MS Access, the implication is that you are trying to do "drop-down menus" in tables ... not a good idea! More info, please... Regards Jeff Boyce Microsoft Office/Access MVP "nilyal" wrote in message news  Is it possible to select more than one option from a drop-down list within the same cell?

If so, and if you're trying to store multiple values in one field... DON'T. A2007 has a "multiple value field" misfeature if you're willing to make your database nonstandard and hard to maintain, but that is not how relational databases are designed to work. What is the data, and how do you want to use it? -- John W. Vinson [MVP]
