Multi-Selection

If this button is pressed, you can select multiple values by sequentially clicking them with the CTRL key held down (or the SHIFT key to select a continuous range of values). In this instance, a field value is selected when you click its name, and checked (or unchecked) when you click a corresponding check box. When you click a check box with multiple values selected, this changes the checked state of all selected values.

If this button is released, you cannot select multiple values. In this instance, a field value is selected and checked (or unchecked) when you click either its name or a corresponding check box.
