The biggest limits are imposed by the OS. For example, you need to have enough address space to access your files (which can be an issue on a 32 bit os). But I believe you should be able to have hundreds of them open, if you need that many. -- Raul ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
