I tried the code before sending it. It worked - I read from the files I
created. Maybe your Gambas version is not recent enough?

Anyway, the Object[] class should at least work in such cases:

--8<---------------
Dim aFiles As New Object[]
Dim hFile As File
Dim J As Integer

For J = 0 To 50
	hFile = Open sPath For Read
	aFiles.Add(hFile)
Next
--8<---------------
