OK. I can answer my own question now. It seems that case sensitivity is
somewhat lost on IDL-- the filename <structAtheader__define.pro> was not
being found but <structatheader__define.pro> is found fine.

My OS is Linux and I never would have guessed there would be a problem
with case sensitivity...

Cheers,
Randall
