>Another dept at work wants to run a Clipper 5.2(DbaseIII+) application. It is current working from a Novell Server and they access it with Win9x workstations. We tested it on NT4 workstation and it bombed with "too many files open". This error happened even after increasing the files in CONFIG.SYS.

The one thing you might want to also add is a SET CLIPPER=F:120 in the "autoexec" file or in a batch that starts up the application(we use 120 for open files, you might be able to get away with less).
