You do not appear to be closing the files properly, and are running out of file buffers. If you need many files open at one time you can set the number of file buffers available to the system in CONFIG.SYS by 'FILES = n" (or is it 'BUFFERS = n'?) where n is the maximum number of files to be open at one time.     
Any DOS reference should be able to help.
