D Douglas J. Steele Feb 17, 2007 #2 There is a limit to how long the string that comprises the value list can be (sorry, I don't remember it off the top of my head). Hopefully you're aware that many of us feel that using lookup fields is a mistake. Take a look at http://www.mvps.org/access/lookupfields.htm for some of the reasons why.

I think the limitations are as follows 2 048 characters for 2000 and earlier versions 32 750 characters for 2002/2003 version I don't know anything for 2007 version, but I doubt it is less than 2002/2003
