I hadn't added any tasks, this happened within the main process not subprocesses. If I run a command once we have no problem, If I run it three times in a row, like playing a sound so you can adjust the volume on the soundblaster after the third run, too many files open error comes back, and even giving up and running another command opendos can't find the batch file in the directory where it's actually located and that directory was on the path. I cleared the situation by rebooting and not running the task manager. doing multiple runs of the play utility playing a certain sound to adjust the volume does not cause these problems when the task manager isn't running. jude
