Is there a limit on how many lines can be in the selection field of a
bulkdataselect query?

    John:

    There is an undocumented limit on the input post size to ws-
    bulkdataselect of 2,000,000 bytes.

    If you try to submit a list that is bigger than that size, you should
    receive an error message.

    Doing a quick test, a 100 line input file is about 5,100 bytes

    (100 lines / 5,100 bytes) * 2,000,000 bytes ~ 39,000 lines

    I would discourage anybody from trying to submit a request that large,
    but it should, in theory, work.

    Cheers
