On the Lookup tab on a field definition, one of the properties is defined as "allow multiple values". The "display control" property would be set to ListBox. On a form, the listbox control will display checkboxes from which the user can select multiple values. In datasheet view, the multiple items are separated by commas. However, when I view the field via an ado recordset, the value property has a field property but it only contains the first item. I need to know what all of the items selected are.
I think I have found a way to do it though. I exported the file to a SQL database. The items selected are now in a ntext field separated by semicolons. I can now create another table that will be normalized. For example:
Access Main table: ID=1; Stores=Walmart,Walgreens,Sears; Several other fields
New Access Main table: ID=1; Several other Fields
New normalized table: ID=1; Stores=Walmart
ID=1; Stores=Walgreens
ID=1; Stores=Sears
