Regardless that has very little to do with my question. Here is just another variation of my multiple select list. <option value="<?php echo $rsinds->Fields('CareerIDs')?>"<?php if ($rsinds->Fields('CareerIDs')== 5) {echo "SELECTED";} ?>><?php echo $rsinds->Fields('CareerCategories')?></option> Here I was just testing with a specific value. the line == 5 will set the value "SELECTED" correctly. If I put in 5, 6, or '5,','6', etc, I get an error. However, I don't believe that line works for multiple values. What works is still a mystery to me.
