Hi All,

I'm creating an application in Access 2007 using VBA. I've been scouring the net for weeks trying to find an answer to a problem I'm having. I'm hoping someone on this site could help.

I have a bounded combo-box on a form where multiple items from the list can be selected. It works fine except that I have a requirement that messes things up. The requirement is that order of selection is very important. What I mean by that is that if a user first selects an item from the combo-box list, that item must be the first item in the combo-box text window. If they pick a second item, then that item must be the second in the list (followed by a comma), and so on. Right now that is not the order being dispayed.

Is a combo-box the right thing to use for this? Is there special coding that I need to write that will handle this. Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
