What you need to know/do is here - start at the bottom of the page as
suggested in the first paragraph:

However, my first line of thought (FWIW) would be to:

Get Office up-to-date - according to your post you "may" be 3 updates
behind. If you haven't applied 11.3.9, 11.4.0 & 11.4.1 you should do that
first - About Word will still indicate 11.3.8 though. You can check the
Updater Logs folder in your Office 2004 folder if you aren't certain where
you stand. Repair permissions followed by a restart.

Hi,

Just this week, in fact last two days, I have started getting a "too
many files open error message". Problem is it happens when I have only
file open or at least I can only see one file open.

Using Word 11.3.8 with Mac OS X 10.4.11 on intel based Mac Book pro
wiht 2GB of ram.

Any ideas what might be happening? I was wondering if it was something
in the latest office update? I have not encountered this message with
my setup ever before and I upgraded the ram back in November 2007.

Thanks for the help.

Thanks for the Tip. My office is up to date. (I checked for new
updates prior to posting).

Checking the UID, my user ID was/is using 501. However, that
apparently was not the reason. My problem it seemed was that I had
logged into the servers using the admin login rather than my user
login. We run a Snap Fileserver and each local user has their own
login. Apparently using the admin login rather than the local user
login seemed to cause Word 2004 issues.

Now i only need to resolve my excel issues...but that is a posting for
another group and time.
