Correct answer Thom Parker

A dropdown cannot be multiselect because of how it works.  However, a listbox can be multiselect. You could use a list box and text field create your own control that looks (sort of) like a multiselect dropdown. But you need to figure out how the list is opened and closed (shown/hidden).
