Unless you are doing a lookup to a different filePro file each time, there 
shouldn't be any need to CLOSE the lookup.  (This just slows things down 
when you re-execute the same lookup.)

You can see which filePro files (since the error says "too many filePro 
files open at once") are currently open by doing something like:

     zz = listbox(@fpfiles)
