Hi Stephen. I have been programming in PV-Wave for several years now and
it surprises me too that there are no PV-Wave programming books out there.
The Programmer's Guide that comes with the software is pretty good, but you
will get the most out of the software if you go to a training class. I
thought I knew what I was doing until I took one.

Another option would be David Fanning's IDL book. I have found it
quite helpful and I don't use IDL (yet ;-) ). You can find it at
www.dfanning.com.
