The problem is that you have too many files open. There, wasn't that easy? :-) The solution is to increase the limit on open files, a parameter that is recorded in your disk's boot blocks. You can do this with Suitcase II. Select "power user settings", and one of the choices is to allow more open suitcases. You could probably just double the number. -- -- Jim Walker 76367.2271@compuserve.com
