Expanding List Box Beyond 32K rows.

[Diesel24]

Hello,

Does anyone know how I can increase my list box beyond the 32,000 rows. I have 130K employees that I am tracking and the list box only goes to ee's with last name starting with the letter "E"?

Regards,

Diesel24

There is a limit. I believe I saw 32,767. You should use pulldown lists for criteria to reduce the number of rows displayed.

Remember if you're using an XLS file, Excel will constrain to those limits of Excel 2003.

Thanks Jeffrey, however I am needing this expanding to 130K rows!

What I'm trying to say is that you should create a pulldown list of letters so that users can select the letter that the last name begins with. Or you could create clickable letters at the top of the form or sheet so the user can choose quickly. The list would show only names that begin with the letter of choice. Each choice would show a new list of names.

Why not have a dropdown that displays the alphabet and then only display the employee's with names beginning with the letter selected in the dropdown?

Or you could have a dynamic filter based on a textbox, as the user types in the listbox only names that match what they've typed show in the listbox.

Ah! That will work! Thanks.
