    Multi-select listbox with State values Plus "All"

    Experts:



    I need some assistance tweaking a process utilizing a listbox.

    Please find attached sample database containing the following objects:
    1. T01_SourceData (only containing some sample data)
    2. Q01_Query
    3. Form

    Allow me to summarize the current process (which works fine):
    - Open "Form" -- the listbox displays all "State" values.
    - I then either select "California" (by itself) or I can select "California" and "Texas".
    - Then I click "Submit Query" **
    - Now, for each selected value in the listbox, a **separate** Excel file was created. This is working great!

    ** Note: In for the process to work for you, please ensure to create a (temporary) "Reports" folder and then update its folder path in the VBA: ReportPath = "C:\Users\dellc\Desktop\Reports


    What I need some help with:
    - As previously stated, the listbox dynamically shows distinct "State" values based on "T01_SourceData"
    - Also, for each "State" value it will create a separate Excel.
    - However, I'd like to tweak the process so that I can also have an **All** value which will include all 11 records when selected.
    - So, I'd like my listbox to also include "All" such as:

    All
    California
    Colorado
    DC/VA
    Delaware
    Florida
    Texas
    Virginia

    So, while I want to continue to get 7 separate Excel files (if chosen), I'd also like to get a single Excel (with 11 records) when selecting "All".

    My question: First, how can I add the "All" to the dynamic list? And then, I need to have to some IF function where -- when "All was selected -- no criteria is passed into the query.

    Thank you,
    EEH

    Never mind... I figured out a solution. No further assistance is needed on this post.

    Be aware that State and Date are listed as Problem names and reserved words in Access

    moke123 - roger... thanks. Actual database uses different fieldnames. Appreciate the link to Allen Browne's site though.
