Oh so it does bomb - good to know, my security audit journal has just hit like 10k...

Nothing. It just stops creating new files with that name. Why don't you test
this yourself? :-) Look:
ATHENA::RPT$ cre test.dat;32766
Exit
ATHENA::RPT$ cre test.dat !This will create ;32767
Exit
ATHENA::RPT$ cre test.dat !This will bomb
%CREATE-E-OPENOUT, error opening SYS_USERS:[RPT]TEST.DAT; as output
-RMS-E-CRE, ACP file create failed
-SYSTEM-W-BADFILEVER, bad file version number
ATHENA::RPT$
BTW, the maximum version number is 32767, so it is (2^15)-1.
Cheers,

P.S.: help/mess badfilever yields also the following:
Explanation: The file version number in a file specification is greater
than 32767 or contains nonnumeric characters. Or, the file
system may have attempted to create a file with a version
higher than 32767 through defaulting rules.

Argh - they haven't put the right metadata in the PDFs and the filenames are like the part numbers of the item in the DocSet.
What a pain.

But I also seem to remember seeing some of them as PDFs, in which case
you would only need to download each manual, and then you have all of
it. That wouldn't be too bad either...

Any idea where I can grab all of them in one place, or do I have to
download them one by one from the HP site?
I'm pretty sure I have some docsets on CD. They should be available
on the net as well, I think.

Thanks - just pulled them down and about to load them onto the DX.
I can highly recommend the device guys - it's expensive but absolutely brilliant for reading, just like a book.
