The list is not short now and gets bigger every day.
The problems with a multiselect list box is that the user still has to scroll through the list to get to what they wish. Mark the record via a key stroke and then scroll somemore to mark more records. If the hit the wrong key stroke then they may clear the previously marked ones in the list out (unselect them). My users are not computer wizards, so the multiselect list box does not work out well as a solution for them.
Thanks for the response though.
