Could you post some of the code and the traceback? It would be
especially good to see your list and make sure you're iterating
through it correctly. Do you open the file in the loop, write to it
and close it?

How can it write to 15 files and then quit at number 10? That
statement seems to contradict itself.

More details for the group would be great. Thanks!
