Alex:

The limit is in java.awt.ScrollPane and you hit it when your list
reaches 64K pixels in length.  Limit applies only to WinTel versions
of Java and comes from the underlying windows peer.  Limit goes away
when Java goes all lightweight (no peers) in JDK 1.2 (though you get
some relief with Swing).

If you see something that looks like an opinion up there,
it's mine and mine alone.

Mail sent to me from the newsgroups won't bounce but will
