Multi select from List Box

Hi all

I have a list of many zip codes which I need to select from a List Box containing all of US zip codes.

Aside of clicking each value while holding the CTRL key, is there a way to enter (using key board or pasting a list) into the search line for the list box to select multiple items? Is there a delimiter that the list box recognizes when keying the different values?

Thanks

Josh

Ive used advanced search using expressions to do something similar to this.

Right click in the list box and goto advanced search.  in the expression, put something like

 

=MATCH([FIELD NAME GOES HERE],'ZipCode1','ZipCode2','ZipCode3',...etc)

Then press GO. Make sure to copy your formula before pressing GO if you want to re use it.  If the list is long, I use Excel to generate the list in the proper syntax and paste it into the expression.

EDIT - Actually, i just tested and you can type this formula directly into the search line and it will also work
