i want to have a list box in my form. I have one in the table that is the
basis for my form. However in the form it is just a list of values that i
can highlight to select the right one. This is ok but a drop down list box
would be better. Any suggestions?

Then you want a ComboBox, not a ListBox.
 
Thank you for your help i have it worked out. Now here is my new problem. I
have that combo box, it it known as "category". Is there a way that when i
select a particular category in the next field which is "questions" that all
the questions pretaining to that cateogry can be in a combo box?

See the help topic "synchronization, combo boxes".

BTW these ComboBoxes should ONLY be in your form, not in your table. See
link below.
