    Check Box Field

    I am trying to find a way to add a checkbox on a form where multiple selections can be checked and then all items checked are saved in a single field in my table. I'm new to access and having trouble getting a checkbox to work let alone allowing multiple selections. Any help is appreciated.

    I don't think saving multiple values into a single field is what you really need.
    See this for more info.

    Thanks Orange, I will follow your advice. I was converting an excel file that was set up this way to an access database. I can see how this is not a good idea.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
