it is set to NONE. I had it working on a different form with the same
setting. I can not figure out what is different between the two forms.

Whoops. NONE is the correct setting.

Could you show us the query that the report is using (View: SQL then copy and
paste)?

Is it possible that you have misspelled the reference to the listbox.
For instance could it be that
[Forms]![frmMain]![lstPRRListing]
should be
[Forms]![frmMain]![lstPRListing]
(note the dropped double R in lstPRRListing).
