My friend is having a problem with Vista giving her this error message:
Too many files open
She said she used to edit the config.nt file to say files=100 to fix it. But
that's not working here. She has between 40-100 files open in FoxPro 2.6.
Anyone have any ideas/suggestions?

On 11/21/00, Ben Forta penned:
CF will not generate an error if the database does not support block
factoring, it's far worse than that. CF has no way to poll the database to
see what it supports, so if you specify a number to high it'll try that, if
that fails it'll try a lesser number, and then
(and takes memory away from where
it could be more efficiently used).
Well, how can you know when it's needed? Obviously, when doing a
search, you may return 1,000 records, or you may return 1.
You won't be able to exactly determine the optimal value for each use.
You'll have to estimate.

I started this thread, and its evolution has lead me to
believe that in fact I may not understand the implementation

I don't think you'd always want to simply set BLOCKFACTOR to 100. If you set
the BLOCKFACTOR too large, the database driver will lower it - and I'm not
sure exactly how it figures out what to lower it to. It might simply lower
it back to the default value of 1
And for the most efficiency, why not just always use BLOCKFACTOR=100 ?
Why is the default the most inefficient choice?
Is there any advantage in uses a lower number?

Is BLOCKFACTOR=10 the same as a SQL Select top 10 *?
No, it's not. It has absolutely no effect on how many records are returned
from the database to CF. It only affects how they're returned.
