Hi, I have a dropdown menu that is populated from Lookup data. I want to restrict the number of selections a user can make, for example selecting only 5 countries from a list. I can't see how to do this anywhere, is it possible?

I imagine you could do it with the frm_validate_field_entry hook, using this example.

Hi, thanks but that looks like it's for checkboxes and was designed for a minimum number not a maximum.

That's why I said "example". Tailor it to your field and requirements.
