case statement limitations ?

Hi,

I have a script which runs on a system using Solaris 2.6 with the latest
kernel patch revision.
This script includes a large case statement.
Very occasionally, the script does not seem to be read all the options
within this case statement & I was therefore wondering if there was a
maximum size or maximum number of characters that are allowed within each
statement.
The options that are occasionally missed, are not always the same ones each
time.
I have already checked for any hidden characters within the script.

Any help or ideas would be appreciated.
