Looking for advice on how to develop a project database

I'm looking for advice on how to approach a project database.  I'd have a project table and a project details table.  But I would also have a "project options" table.  This project options table would show all possible choices a user could make for entering into the project details table.  I think I see the project options as a multi-select list box on a form.  If the user selected for example 25 of the options I would want those options to populate the project details table somehow.  But I don't know how to do this.

Am I even on the right track?

Looking for advice.

instead of the listbox, it is better to use a subform bound to the options table, with a combo box with all the options as the rowsource with the master/child link fields set to the Project id
