Autofilter limits?
 
I have a very long spreadsheet. I have checked the autofilter dropdown list
and found that not all the items present in the column are listed. I don't
think I have any blank rows. Is there a maximum number of items that will
show up in an autofilter list? If so, is theere a way to change that? If
not, help!

In xl2003 and below, you can see 1000 unique values.

Debra Dalgleish has some notes/workarounds:

You can always use the "Custom" option beneath the AutoFilter to hone your
data selection, using the available variables such as Greater Than, Less
Than, Contains, Does Not Contain, Begins With, Ends With, etc
