    select Multiple value in option group, is it possible


    Hi all
    I am using the options group tool to assign text to values, which works fine if i am only selecting one option. one of my fields is set to allow multi value selections. when I try to update the field using the options group on the form the database freezes (no error message). is it possible to use the options group tool to achieve this?

    Use check boxes.
    Radio button options are for a single selection.

    You may also find that a listbox that allows multiple selections has the functionality you are seeking.
    Here's a link to a Martin Green article.
