    Hi,
    
    Are there any maximum number of files that I can create in a shared
    directory (ODS2, not FAT)?
    
    
    
    Thanks in advance,

    But be careful, as I've seen performance issues when you have thousands
    of files in any one directory.  It's a well documented VMS problem when
    the .DIR file size gets greater than something like 128 blocks (the dir
    entries no longer get cached).
