>>Does anyone now the maximum number of items that can be defined in a scrollable popup menu? I've come into a scenario where a certain dataset contain 11,000+ records, for which I am displaying a column in that dataset in a popup menu. The menu doesn't come to the foreground, and only a small border is visible at the top of where the menu should be.

Thanks for the replies. I'm well aware of the uselessness of having so many items in a menu, but thought it be a worthwhile discussion anyway...

So after further testing, the menu itself does not have a limit to the number of entries, *but* it has a limit to the number of total characters - around 163,800.
