If you are going to list them each manually like you have below, You could
do something like:
<cfselect name="FinanceType" size="2" multiple>
<option value="Single Family Housing" <CFIF
ListContains(Viewgrid.FinanceType, "Single Family
Housing")>SELECTED</CFIF>>Single Family Housing</option>
<option value="501(c)(3)"<CFIF ListContains(Viewgrid.FinanceType,
"501(c)(3)")>SELECTED</CFIF>>501(c)(3)</option>
<option value="Hospital Revenue"<CFIF ListContains(Viewgrid.FinanceType,
"Hospital Revenue")>SELECTED</CFIF>>Hospital Revenue</option>
<option value="Leasehold Revenue"<CFIF ListContains(Viewgrid.FinanceType,
"Leasehold Revenue")>SELECTED</CFIF>>Leasehold Revenue</option>
<option value="Multifamily Housing" <CFIF ListContains(Viewgrid.FinanceType,
"Multifamily Housing")>SELECTED</cfif>>Multifamily Housing</option>
<option value="General Obligation" <CFIF ListContains(Viewgrid.FinanceType,
"General Obligation")>SELECTED</cfif>>General Obligation</option>
<option value="NID" <CFIF ListContains(Viewgrid.FinanceType,
"NID")>SELECTED</cfif>>NID</option>
<option value="Special Obligation" <CFIF ListContains(Viewgrid.FinanceType,
"Special Obligation")>SELECTED</cfif>>Special Obligation</option>
<option value="Industrial Development" <CFIF
ListContains(Viewgrid.FinanceType, "Industrial
Development")>SELECTED</cfif>>Industrial Development</option>
<option value="TIF" <CFIF ListContains(ViewGrid.FinanceType,
"TIF")>Selected</cfif>>TIF</option>
<option value="TDD/TC" <CFIF ListContains(Viewgrid.FinanceType,
"TDD/TC")>SELECTED</cfif>>TDD/TC</option>
<option value="Other" <CFIF ListContains(Viewgrid.FinanceType,
"Other")>SELECTED</cfif>>Other</option>
</cfselect>

Subject: Multiple value Select
I'm trying to set up a CFSELECT using the SELECTED option. I need to have
the CFSELECT set up as multiple since more than one option is permitted.
However, I can never seem to get the SELECTED option to properly highlight
the options that are already stored in the record. (In other words, I want
to create an edit screen where the previously stored values are preselected
in this control.) Any thoughts on what I may be doing wrong? The code for
my select follows: (Note that ViewGrid is a grid from which the user
previously selected this record. I've also tried doing this from a query
with the same result - nothing is selected.)
<cfselect name="FinanceType" size="2" selected="#ViewGrid.FinanceType#"
multiple>
<option value="Single Family Housing">Single Family Housing</option>
<option value="501(c)(3)">501(c)(3)</option>
<option value="Hospital Revenue">Hospital Revenue</option>
<option value="Leasehold Revenue">Leasehold Revenue</option>
<option value="Multifamily Housing">Multifamily Housing</option>
<option value="General Obligation">General Obligation</option>
<option value="NID">NID</option>
<option value="Special Obligation">Special Obligation</option>
<option value="Industrial Development">Industrial Development</option>
<option value="TIF">TIF</option>
<option value="TDD/TC">TDD/TC</option>
<option value="Other">Other</option>
</cfselect>
