I tried to open 400 TIFF CCITT group 4 files from the Photoshop CS3 as I used to do in Photoshop 7, but I got an error message: "Could not complete the open command because opening the number of files selected would cause Photoshop to have more than 200 documents windows open at once". Does anybody know if there are any limitations on the maximum allowed number of files to be opened at the same time?

Based on the error message, my guess would be 200.

I just opened 200 files. Tried 201 and got your error. Opened 200 then tried to open one more and got your error. (yes, I actually took the time to confirm the obvious)

Seems like the error message is pretty clear.

200: THIS… IS… PHOTOSHOOOOOOP!!!

Why are you opening 400 images simultaneously?

He’s not.

He’s only allowed 200. 😉
