In the Finder's LAYO (Layout) resource there is a field for Max Number of Windows Open. I think the default is 13. You can edit this field with ResEdit or Mike OConner's "Layout" application. If you are running MultiFinder, you may wish to increase the memory allocation filed in the FInder's "Get Info" box. --scott -- Scott Truesdell
