Has anyone had any success increasing the number of filehandles for an
OS/2 protectmode process?  I have tried using the DosSetMaxFH API call
to set the number of file handles to various numbers between 50 and
255, but I never seem to have more than 20. DosSetMaxFH does not
return any errors.

I'm probably overlooking something really easy, so any help is much appreciated.
