    Hi,

    do you use a value list or a query as row source? It could be a value list has a limited number of characters. However, using a query as row source, you should be able to have as much entrees as you wanted. However, I wouldn't recommend to use much more then 100 items in a list because it's getting slower and not so user friendly when you're using very large lists.
