• Microsoft Project for Windows, version 4.0
• Microsoft Project for the Macintosh, version 4.0

SYMPTOMS

In Microsoft Project, you receive different results when you add too many table rows in any of the following dialog boxes:

Bar Styles
Consolidate Projects
Filter Definition
Menu Bars
Table Definition

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.

MORE INFORMATION

Each of these dialog boxes contains a table, and an Insert Row button that you can use to add rows to the table. The rows in the table represent different items in each dialog box; a bar on the Gantt chart, a file to consolidate, criteria in a filter, a menu item on a menu, and a field in a table. Each dialog box behaves similarly for adding and removing rows. However, if you add too many rows to the table, you do not receive the same results in each of the dialog boxes.

The following is a list of each of these dialog boxes, the maximum number of rows you can add in each, and the behavior that occurs when you exceed this limit in the dialog box.

Dialog Box	Maximum number of rows	Behavior when maximum number of rows exceeded
Bar Styles	20	No error message, the last bar style in the table drops off the list.
Consolidate Projects	80	No error message and new row is not added.
Filter Definition	20	No error message, the last criteria in the table drops off the list.
Menu Bars	245	Error message: "Too many items in menu bar. Cannot insert any more."
Table Definition	114	No error message, the last field in the table drops off the list.
