I have 8 Drop Downs that I need to Chain.
The DISTINCT number of ROWS is about
35,000 +/- which populate these drop downs.
I get an ERROR RETRIEVING DATA...
message on the LOWER LEFT SIDE of my browser.

Does anyone have any ideas what causes this?
Is there a limit on the number of Chained Dropw Downs or is it the excessive number of rows?

I am using Dev Studio 7.6.4
I have also tried only chaining 3 or 4 of the 8 but no success.

Leo, first, are you using 8 separate fexes, or 1 fex producing a giant array, or just master files?

i've asked KErry to find out where the SUmmit presentations are posted, you'll want to read the one from 2009 on Chaining.
