Thank you Larry for the clarifications. This is what I suspected.
Regarding the Listbox with check marks" which I found on the web, it is
Reference:: Sikh Philosophy Network http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/information-technology/13711-which-event-is-triggered.html
actually coded in VBA and works with Access 97 and Access 2000. It does not
use an activex but some features within ACCWIZ.DLL which comes with a full
installation of Access.
The link with history and download is
