Dialog --menu limitation for the entries for selection

Hi Guys,
Please pardon me if this is a silly question, but I have tried to find an answer and going through the man page and failed to get one. I have created a menu driven script with dialog --menu option. Everything is working as expeted, however, it seems that if I have more than 10 entries in the selection menu, anything above entry 10 will not work. I wonder if there is a limitation for the diaglog --menu option to maximum of 10 entries only? Appreciate some guidance.

NAME
XmRemoveFromPostFromList -- a RowColumn function that disables a menu for a particular widget SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/RowColumn.h> void XmRemoveFromPostFromList( Widget menu, Widget post_from_widget); DESCRIPTION
XmRemoveFromPostFromList makes a Popup or Pulldown menu no longer accessible from a widget. This function does not destroy a menu, or deal- locate the memory associated with it. It simply removes the widget from the menu's list of widgets permitted to post that menu. If the menu argument refers to a Popup menu, the event handlers are removed from the post_from_widget widget. If the argument refers to a Pulldown menu, its ID is removed from the XmNsubMenuId of the specified post_from_widget. Also, if the menu is a Pulldown menu, the post_from_widget widget must be either a CascadeButton or a CascadeButtonGadget. menu Specifies the widget ID of a the Popup or Pulldown menu to be made inaccessible from the post_from_widget widget. post_from_widget Specifies the widget ID of the widget which can no longer post the menu referred to by the menu argument..
