Default Data Validation - Excel 2007

Data Validation - Lists
is there a limitation on how many rows of data can have in a list?
I reference worksheet that contains the data for the reference list.
has 54 rows of names.
but on the worksheets that use the pick list it only scrolls down to row 52,
the last two names don't show up.

Help....

figured it out my Define Name of Range, is only going to 52, but won't let me
reset the range, won't save the changes.
If I delete the Define Name range - and create it again, will that delete
all the references in the workbooks that have already been using it, and
remove it's content?

Resolved, made copy of workbook, tested by delete name reference and
recreated it, didn't effect other data. Recreated the name range and now
show all rows in the drop down list.
