You will need a small subform on the main form to make it simple to enter multiple categories per person. you could use a multi-select listbox but this involves VBA and is much more difficult to work with. The mini-subform can be formatted to blend into the main form so no one even realizes it is a subform.
I don't have a very good "eye" for GUI design. But when I saw Pat's quote (above) in another thread, I thought of a couple of places I could use this to solve an unusual problem and make my user's experience better. So I tried it out.
I have been unable to make a small subform "blend in". Specifically, I can't get rid of the "3D" effect on my small subform.
Is there a property that you need to set to remove the "3D" border from a subform? I haven't found it yet.
