Thread-topic: Microsoft Office - too many files open
I created a folder inside of the Microsoft Office 2004/Office folder
named recovered_files on all of my client machines, set its preferences
it 777 and then I had the preference file changed on all my network
users to use that for the autosave/autorecover location in the Word
preferences. Since then my users havn't been getting this error.
Hope that helps,

Subject: Re: Microsoft Office - too many files open
I have been running into this problem for a couple months at the High
School
I administer. I have tried deleting prefs and config files and even
wacking
whole home directeries to see if it helps and the only thing that seems
to
be reliable is having the users go into word and in preferences/ under
file
locations point the documents to their own documents folder. Some posts
Ive
read also points out that the auto save feature should be turned off.
I hope this helps
