I have a list box that is displaying 2 columns that are 254 character length text boxes. They display on one line in the list box...isn't there a multiline in the textbox. I cant seem to find it...

Thanks
 
I don't think so. An 'Item' is what a listbox will display on a line, so you would need to split the 255 character string. Of course, this then becomes a mess because if a user selects the 1st or 2nd part of the same 'record', you would need to figure out how to select the correct item (if not allowing multi-select, then problem may not be so tough).

"Hmmm, it worked when I tested it....
