The config file doesn't accept a FILES= statement. How do I specify that I need 70 open files? I do business program development, not games.

dosbox allows opening of 127 files by default.
so maybe the detection by program and dosbox don't mix. We would have to debug the program

How to ask questions the smart way!
try that: in the folder you mount as c, coy a text file there with the name config.sys and write the line
FILES=70
in it. Just maybe the game/program is stupid 😀
No, I am the one who is stupid. I just manually counted files and there are 136. Is there any way around my problem, or do I have to close and reopen files? The application is chock full of index files.

files!=open files
Seems to be a lot of stupidity around here. I did what you suggested and it works! Thank a bunch.

Maybe this would be something to add to the little faq section of the readme for the next release...
Sorry, false alarm. It worked because I created an .EXE module instead of running unlinked .OBJs. The latter requires more files. The config.sys file actually made no difference.
