Mike-- 

Heh. I like the idea that tech support would do something other than (eventually) pass the question on to me. I dream of the day that that happens....<g> 

Anyway, I don't know of any limitation on the number of text files placed, and I've placed more than 273 text files (not more than about 300, though--for that, we have to turn to Alan "Torture Test" Stearns and his diabolical testing automation). 

So--it sounds like ID is losing its mind, to me--which would probably point to something to do with disk space. Unless you've saved/closed the file, all of the actions stack up in the "undo" queue--stored in a file written to disk. Try setting up the script to save/close/reopen the file at around file 250, then re-open and proceed. I've had to do that a few times for simple performance reasons--as the undo queue grows, the program gets slower and slower. 

Hope this helps! 

Thanks, 

Ole
