Default How do I set up a field in Access 2000 to accept multiple combo b.

I have a field "remarks" that I would like autofilled with multiple
selections from combo boxes I have set up. ie After I select on choice... I
can then select another and have it fill in after... to form a sentence. Is
this possible?
Thank You!

You could use the AfterUpdate event of each combo box to run code that
concatenates its value into the textbox:

Private Sub ComboBoxName_AfterUpdate()
Me.TextBoxName.Value = (Me.TextBoxName.Value + " ") &
Me.ComboBoxName.Value
End Sub
