Microsoft Visual Basic for Windows programs normally may not have more
than 15 files open at once. Visual Basic for Windows displays the error
message "Too many files" (error code 67) when you attempt to open more
than the maximum number of files at once. You can increase the maximum
number of open files by calling the Windows API function SetHandleCount.
