Pay attention of WHERE you have set the "No" quotes.

In a double list box, there are tree section.

1- The "From"
2- The "To"
3- The container

The "No quotes" option has to be set on the container : you have to click beside the "From" and the "To" box where the whole control will be selected and then set the "Multiple : add quotes" to "No"

For example: Value I set in list box is: BATCHTIME NOPRINT. When I run the report in echo mode, the code I saw is 'BATCHTIME NOPRINT' which I hope is just BATCHTIME NOPRINT.

MartinY:
The container doesn't have property "Multiple : add quotes"

Yes it has.

Click on the control to have it selected all. It the same time the "Properties and setting" popup window of the control should display.

Oh, I am using App Studio and couldn't find that property. It is so weird.

Hello hainguyen,

The location of a few properties in the properties pane has changed between App Studio and Dev Studio.

To find that specific property, first click on the item selection dropdown (the very top item in the Properties panel, it has an icon of a rectangle with a red triangle in the corner) and choose
customselect1_selectfrom <SELECT>
(note the name might be slightly different if your form item has a different name). Once you have this item selected, the option Multiple: Add Quotes should become available in the Miscellaneous category. Be sure to do this for customselect1_selectto as well.

Let me know if you have any more questions.
