Heh, I wish it were that simple :) Yeah, I know how it *should* work, but the problem is that isn't working. Oh, and you're right about the datatips - my mistake, should've read the docs closer. Any ideas why multi-select wouldn't function on a List or Tree? Is there something about it being inside a Form control?
