List boxes

[Bobbie Cather]

I'm having trouble with a form that has a multi select list. When the
selections are highlighted and you move to another field the
selections "appear" to be lost. The items all deselect, Yet, when I
send the form, the person looking at the "Read" page sees the
selections. ( I have the selections populating a separate field on the
Read page). I think this will be very confusing for the person who is
selecting (Compose page). To this person it will appear that there
selections are being ignored.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Go to www.slipstick.com or www.outlookcode.com and search for
multi-select or listbox. There should be something the explains how to
use multi-select variables.

If this is about a multi-select listbox, then perhaps it is just a
matter of changing the style of the listbox so the checkboxes show. A
checked box shouldn't de-select when you move to another field.
