The amount of data that was returned by a data connection has exceeded the maximum limit that was configured by the server administrator. Form elements, such as drop-down lists, may be blank.


I am using cascading dropdowns to try and filter the data down so that only the respective items show based on the filters, however that is not working.

My question is can i have multiple xml files associated to the dropdown and just break apart the xml into smaller pieces and then once the specific criteria is met just display that?

Would i have to add a bunch of dropdowns and set rules that when something matches it displays?

I am open for any suggestion at this point.

The form is to large to attach or I would.
