I think there is a limit of 255/256 characters for control item text in MB.
The solution I would use is not to do this at all! It is a little unusual to
put that many numeric items in a pop-up menu (or list/combo control) - try
using it to see how bizarre it is. It is more in line with Windows GUI
guidelines to have the user enter the number in a dialog editbox and then a
button to validate & action.
