Hi;
Is there a limit to the number of entries in a drop down list? Would a list of 1200-1500 names have an impact on performance? We don't need validation or conditional formatting (e.g. red for a value is entered that is not in the list). Are there best practices for a task like this?
Thanks in advance,
Andrew
