I have a series of option groups, with each feeding into a text field. Is it possible to make these option groups to allow more than one answer? So, instead of having to make up a field for each option, i can just adjust the properties of that option group for this to work? Thank you for your help already.

Matt:

Can't do that with option groups. You an create psuedo option groups with Check boxes to give the capability to select more than one.

Using the after update events you can mimic the way option groups work if some of the check boxes are mutually exclusive. Larry De Laruelle

You could use a ListBox. You can set the MultiSelect property to either 0 (none), 1 (simple, where you can simply select and deselect each by clicking) or 2 (extended, where you must use CTRL and SHIFT to select, like in Windows Explorer).
