What you'd need to do (unfortunately this is probably the only way, but someone 
correct me if I'm wrong):

You'd write an event listener that hooked the item adding event, and 
essentially you'd then use the object model to determine how many items were 
currently in the list, and if it went over the threshold you'd set the 
cancelled property to true, and provide a message telling them they have hit 
the limit.  Fairly simple to write.

Subject: [OzMOSS] limit number of entries in a list.

 Hello all,

Firstly thanks for all the advice on Server Farm configuration.  Another quick 
question as I am not technically a developer but due to having to adapt in a 
small workplace - I have had to dabble in just about everything ....SharePoint 
Designer and Visual Studio, Server setup etc etc....

What I need to know is that is there a way to set the number of items allowed 
in a list (not displayed i.e. It would only allow 20 items to be inputted) 
without any customisation through designer and and if so how? if not can anyone 
advise me on how I could achieve this?

Regards
Peter Milliner
