- I need to program a combo box object which must contain a lot of list items.
- To be exact I want to store approx 12000 street names (average length ~20
- chars) in a combo box. Unfortunately I have only been able to store approx
- half the streets I need to. I am using Turbo C++ but only using the C
- language.
-
- Someone I work with here vaguely remembers a discussion taking place on this
- subject in the old programmer newsgroup late last year. Could someone post or
- email me what the outcome of this discussion was or give me some indication
- how to overcome the combobox limit I am encountering.
-
- Thanks in advance.
