My present clients insist on having disabled items shown - the lists in question are available modules and they want the user to KNOW they don't have a particular module. Normally I agree with Nancy, David, et al., but in this case I think they have a good point.

Why show someone a list of "choices" they can't choose? Plus the smaller a cbo/list is, the more efficient it is.
