Hi there,

Is there any limitation in the size of a picklist? we have a 5000 count to
import to a picklist. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance

Hi Diogo,

There is no physical limitation to picklists. The problem will be the
usability of a picklist with that amount of values.

With kind regards,

Have you thought about splitting the data into more picklist attributes?
this might be a lot easier for the enduser. It is more difficult to create
though.

You will run into a problem if you have a large picklist like that. Because
MSCRM uses views to return your picklist data, it needs to embed them into
that view. SQL Server will run out of stack space long before you hit 5000
items. You might consider upgrading to 3.0 and putting your picklist data in
a custom entity. That way you can get around the stack limitations.
