can you allow multiple selections for each text box

If you want to allow multiple selections, use Check Box tool, it's under Form Tools. This is designed to accept multiple answers by checking it on the list.

However, if you mean a tool that shows a list when you click a Text Box field and that allows multiple selections, use this widget instead: http://widgets.jotform.com/widget/multiple_selection

If this isn't what you are looking for, let us know so we can assist you further.

Thank you!
