Well, you are right. Something strange is going on. :-) I ran your program, then typed "Resolve_All". I got the same message about IDLffDICOM__DEFINE not being defined. But I carried on anyway, and saved the file as a save file. It ran perfectly as a run-time program. This is in IDL 5.5, Windows 2000. I'd contact RSI. This is an internal routine, it looks like.
