Visio Professional 2003 is new to me, but I've discovered through reading the
online Help that I can assign custom properties to shapes and link that
information to a database, which is just what I need to keep track of our
internal systems and data interfaces.

My question is ... I have 24 custom properties assigned to a particular
shape in my diagram, and I've used a numbering approach to work around the
alphabetic sort. Everything is working swimmingly except the limitation I've
run into is if you have a long list of custom properties, the dialog box only
displays the first 20. Is there a way to force the dialog box to display all
or control the size of the dialog box somehow?

The dialog can only show 20 properties. Use the Custom Properties window
(available from the View menu) to display the full set of properties.
