I also had the same problem and increasing the number to 50,000, as Equis
suggested, did not solve the problem.
I kept a backup of the original file and whenever I need to discard the
results I simply copy the backup to original MS directory. When I included
a new system tester that I want to keep I updated the backup before run
the system tester.
A possible option is to open the file with Access XP version to delete the
registers. However, I did not have time to check if it would produce any
problem with the system tester.

'>'I have Mdtastock 8.01 EOD, running on Windows 98SE. I have recently
been
'>'running larger System Tests, and now when I go to Discard a test get
a Program
'>'Error with the message: "file sharing lock count exceeded. Increase
'>'MaxLocksperFile."
'>'
'>'I contacted Metastock support, and they showed me how to change this
setting
'>'in the Registry. The "default" is 9500 locks. It was suggested
'>'to double or triple this. The technician I spoke to has his set to 250,000,
'>'but he also has Windows 2000.
'>'
'>'I did some checking, and apparently a very high setting can slow down
execution
'>'of some programs. I first increased mine to 20,000, and then to 40,000.
If
'>'I run a System test with 100 stocks, 4 years of daily data, and 15 optimization
'>'settings (1440 tests in all), I still get this error message when I
Discard
'>'the file. If I run it with 8 optimization settings, I can discard OK.
(I
'>'select Discard and Clean-up after every system test, so their are no
residual
'>'tests which Metastock is also trying to discard.)
'>'
'>'The data for the system test is stored in ST_DATA.mdb. A file that is
43
'>'Meg Discards OK. A file that is 71 Meg creates the error message.
'>'
'>'Has anyone experienced these same problems, and if so, what MaxLocksperFile
'>'settings have been successful?
'>'
'>'Having to run optimization tests with such a small number of variables
so
'>'as not to trigger this error message is really labor intensive.
