You can't. Combo boxes don't work that way.
List Boxes, whose MultiSelect property is set to either Simple or
Extended, do work that way.

Only by storing the information in another Table (probably using a Subform).

John,
This is the direction I started in - but still fail to get it to work. What
I have done is created a new table just for this information. The table has
a one to many relationship with the first table. I created a subform that
captures the list box of the information for this second table. But for some
reason, the data is not being recorded in the second table. Also if I view
another record in the main form and come back to this record, the list box
(in the subform) no longer indicates the selection previously identified.
Any thoughts?

Then fix the error in your form and subform.
I don't know what the error might be, because you have not posted any
information about the structure of your tables or your form. Please do so and
I'll be glad to try to help!
