Multibox Query

Hi,
Pls refer attached image. In a multibox, if a particular selection has a huge list of values and user has to select more than one item by CTRL key, its not a very user-friendly task. Instead, is there any option to show the items as a check-box.

Any suggestion!!

Thank You.

The user can make a multiple search by typing keyword, then press enter, make a second search and then press ctrl+enter to add the neww search to the previous, it works as the CTRL+clic but seems to be moore apreciate by user than drill the list.

Another thing is to clic on the list to make appears value and make right clic on the values then advanced search and then type the formula

:=0<>mixmatch(MyFieldName,'toto','titi',........)

One alternative could be taking such a field out of the Multi-box into a List Box of its own, and configuring Presentation to use "Windows checkboxes".

On the other hand, I'm usually trying to find the logical reason for multiple Items search - for example:

- The user is trying to select all Reason Codes that pertain to his Department

- ... select all Customers that belong to a particulat Market

You get the idea - if the users end up selecting multiple items all the time, there must be some other attribute that's tying all those multiple items together. That attribute needs to be identified and added, and then such selections can be made in one click.

You may have a difference situation, and that's fine, but in many cases this approach should work...
