I am dynamically populating a poplist with a query based upon
username. Is there a limit (quantity or memory) on how big the
poplist can be? If it is, is it a parameter that can be modified at
the server or some other level?

That limit (if it exists) is in your application server, not Oracle.
Oracle will returns millions and millions of rows for the query if the
query warrants it. The better question is, can my application server
handle this and does my development platform handle this? In any case,
that is not an Oracle question so another forum might be better suited
for you.

HTH,
Brian

No, but there are guidelines to GUI design. One of them
explains what the options are when a poplist gets too long.

The (well-known) poplist with countries of the world is
a prime example of a list which basically is too long.

There should be a pre selection screen (e.g. continent); but
because everyone uses the shortcuts (start typing), there's
no burden.
