Matching Form

I am trying to set up a database that matches the values in 2 tables off against each other and records the details of the match in a third table. I have worked out a system for setting this up but I am falling down at the user interface for the matching

A lot of the matching will require the user to look at values in each table and match them off. To enable them to do this I know I need to set up a form with 2 sub forms so they can look at records in each table. I then want them to be able to click the appropriate lines for matching and click an update button.

The problem I have is enabling the users to be able to select lines (single and multiple) in each table and then find what their selection is with code so I can run the matching system I have on their selections

Maybe you could use multi-select list boxes instead of subforms to show the
records from the two tables... then it would be quite easy to do the rest in
code.
