I don't have first hand experience could be able to stay categorically that this is a limitation of QuickBase, but if it was me I would simply create a text version of the multi select field using

    The interesting thing is I duplicated the field that won't appear and that duplicated one (requestee notes2) popped up no problem. 

    I thought of that solution as well, however, this table has already been created and there are historical records of text that exist. I don't want to have to create a duplicate text field as that will complicate the table.
