Hi Brett.

>> 300 items in a grid won't by itself be any less of an end-user torture. It's debateable how long a list can be before it becomes cumbersome. I haven't seen much discussion of alternatives. I suppose that a listbox that gets too long needs to be replaced by a search form that would return a shorter list. That form is not an improvement unless it's very well designed. <<

I suppose that this also depends on how well the multi-select grid is designed < s >. I have several in production that my end users love because they are so easy to use. Obviously, if you don't give your multi-select grid incremental search, it is going to be a PITA to use no matter how you slice it.
