    You are describing a combobox. There you can select multiple values.

    Yes, I understand that. 

    You can replace a Dropdown inside a Form with a Combobox. It will look nearly the same, just that you can select multiple options. This will not be possible with a Dropdown controll, those are designed to only get one selection.

    Please make sure that the settings inside your choice column allows multiple selection

    Okay well than you can use this formula in your patch to put it all in one value:

    Concat(ComboBox1.SelectedItems,Value,", ")
