Alright everyone, I've managed to stump this group 2 or 3 times now. Don't
let me down on this one ;)
I have a combo box that lists a number of tests to be run. The user would
like the option of being able to select several of the items in the ComboBox
at one time, then have them added to the listbox that details the tests.
Currently it works fine when they select one test at a time, but often they
have multiple tests they need to run. Anyone know how to do this?
I might have the option of creating a datagrid that lists all of the tests,
is there a way to select multiple rows in a datagrid and process them?
Thanks for all your help!

Why not just use a CheckedListBox instance? It would be the easiest way
to have multiple selections.
ComboBox controls do not support multi-select functionality, nor does it
make sense, since it will only show one selection at a time.
Hope this helps.

Unfortunately I don't have the real estate for a CheckedListBox.
I know the ComboBox only shows one selection at a time, but each selection
then get put into a ListBox that details each of the tests to be run. I was
hoping I could allow them to select somehow, and just list the first one
selected, while moving all of the selections to the ListBox. Hmmm...on to
plan B.

I find that hard to believe. If you have the real estate for a data
grid (which you said you might be able to do), then youhave the real estate
for a CheckedListBox.
If you can't do either of those, I would recommend a textbox with a
button next to it which brings up a dialog which you can then select your
tests from. Then, in the textbox, you can have a delimited list of items.

Or you could do something like a expanding control on hover, that grows when
the mouse or control enters your list box, the user can select what is
wanted and leave..., in the leave you could get the control back to original
size
