Mulitple Select & View with the control key

Hello,
What method could I use after the connection is made with the Look Up Wizard to a table to select multiple records, then have the muliple records viewed on the view page. At the moment I can only get it to display (1) record. I've been working on this for days and can't seem to come up with a method of getting these multiple items to stick with one user.
Suggestions would be appreciated

Hi,
to make multiple selection Lookup wizard please set select size to 2 or more in Edit format on Formattingtab in PHPRunner.

I have been doing that, and yes it allows and remembers the muliple selections but then when you are back on the view page it only displays one of the selections.

Hi,
the field you edit should be VARCHAR type in your database. Also the Link field for this Lookup wizard should be VARCHAR.

I cannot select more than one item in the drop down, using the ctl or shift key. The mysql field is varchar, but I am setting the drop down from a value list, not a table. Any ideas?

Hi,
unfortunately multiple selection from list of values doesn't work now.

Thank you for pointing me to this issue. I'll fix it in the next update of PHPRunner.
As yet I advise you to create a table with necessary values and use it as the lookup table.
