Rename FOLDRxxx.PRG such that you replace the xxx with a number. Then place
the renamed program in your \auto folder. The number is the number of
additional folders (above and beyond the 40 folder limit) you want memory
allocated for. Examples:
		FOLDR100.PRG	Allows almost 140 folders TOTAL
		FOLDR135.PRG	Allows almost 175 folders
		FOLDR400.PRG	Allows a couple of large HD's :-)

What I do is keep xxx (the number) set to the TOTAL number of folders on all
my hard drive partitions plus about 10 or 20. AND I count the number of
folders (adjusting xxx accordingly) occasionaly.  This leaves room for what
ever folders might be on any floppies you have in the floppy drive and some
room to create more folders on your HD.
