We had the same problem too, albeit with an even larger (@180 files)
project.  The only solution for us was to buy OptiLink/Windows from SLR
Systems.  This was perhaps the best purchase we ever made!  Links are MANY
times faster, and never encounter the problems that Link did.  Not only
that, but the program is half Link's size!  It seems Link has problems
keeping files open when not necessary, hence you run out of file handles.
Note that setting your FILES limit in config.sys won't help -- the limit
is imposed on the Link executable itself.

Buy OptiLink today.  You'll be glad you did!
