Hello!
Attached is a sample of the database I am working on. I have a form called Distribute_Work_Form that has a multiselect box that allows a user to select items and assign it to someone from the dropdown list. Is it possible to allow the Shift Key so that a user can select ranges of items, similarly to how you can select ranges of items in Windows Explore by clicking the first item then keep your shift key down and select the last item and everything in between is selected?

Thanks

Haven't looked at the sample, but a listbox has two different multiselect settings, one of which is the one you want.
 
Hi Paul, I know that setting the multiselect to Extended will allow you to do what I need but I was hoping there was a way of blending both the Extended and the Simple option so that user can use the Shift Key for Ranges but also select one item at a time
 
I think I got it, by using the Extended option in the multiselect, a user can use the shift key to select a range but also can use the Ctrl to select individual items.


Thanks
