Hi John!
I seem to recall that there is a limit on how many tab files can be displayed in a mapper,or open in MapInfo at the same time.
Perhaps it's in the Wiki?
Try opening your tab files with no view to begin with, gradually increasing the number of files until it breaks.
Then try adding the number you can open to one mapper window, in the same way and see how far you can get.
But on the whole, I really think you should reconsider your database design. What can be the rationale to use thousands of tab files for a base map?
Because even if you could open and display so many files, their use as a base map would be completely impractical simply beacuse of the sheer number of files involved.

Hello Listers,
I have a massive amount of tab files (from a landline dataset). Which I would like to open to create a base map. However when I highlight all the files to open on the current map, MapInfo does nothing. If I select say 100 of the files to open, then they will open fine but as there are thousands it would take along time to open them this way.
Has anyone come across this problem before? Are there any tools that will systematically open a folder full of tab files until they are all open?
Any help would as always be very much appreciated.
Thanks a million!
- John
