Problem with enableViewState

I have a page that has two combo boxes, each has a good bit of data in it that is retreived from a database using a com recordset (I can't use the .Net DataSet). Anyway when a list grows long enough I get an error "Invalid length for a Base-64 char array", after I select a new value from either combo box. It appears that the viewstate cannot handle this much data. Ok, but if I turn off the enableViewState property for the combo boxes i cannot get their selected values in the VB SelectedIndexChanged event that is behind the page. Any suggestions?!

Just to note I am trying to run this page on a iPaq, don't know if that makes a difference.

Thanks for any help!
