Probably some bug or incorrect usage in your program.  Post a short
program here, explain what does ``will not open'' mean, and somebody
will find the culprit.

One possible problem might be that you tried to open a file using its
long name.  DJGPP programs cannot access long file names on NT (see
section 3.3 of the DJGPP FAQ list).
