Multiple Selection Drop Downs, Multiple Columns - Unselect Option

[bakersh34]

I found the following VBA code that allows multi select within lists, but I would like to add to it the ability to unselect a choice.

Example: Originally the selections of Apple, Banana, Pear were made, but I would like to remove Pear from the results by selecting it again.

Dim Oldvalue As String
Dim Newvalue As String
Application.EnableEvents = True
On Error GoTo Exitsub
If Target.Column = 9 Or Target.Column = 17 Or Target.Column = 18 Or Target.Column = 19 Or Target.Column = 20 Then
If Target.Value = "" Then GoTo Exitsub Else
Application.EnableEvents = False
Newvalue = Target.Value
Application.Undo
Oldvalue = Target.Value
If Oldvalue = "" Then
Target.Value = Newvalue
Else
If InStr(1, Oldvalue, Newvalue) = 0 Then
Target.Value = Oldvalue & ", " & Newvalue
Else:
Target.Value = Oldvalue
End If
End If
End If
Application.EnableEvents = True
Exitsub:
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

Thanks in advance for your help!

Thank you, @kweaver

Unfortunately the code within the above, does not restrict the multi select to only specific columns. Any additional support on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
