Hmmm, I'm not sure I follow the idea of 'max file handles'. There are many different ways of opening files, according to whether you want to use AmigaDOS, ANSI, UNIX etc compatible routines. I prefer to use the AmigaDOS routines, and I've got a monster program that opens lots of files. I haven't found a limit yet. I'm not sure what the exact figure is, but I think that I have 200-300 files open simultaneously! Steve the G. [BEDFORDSHIRE, UK]
