for some reasons value_locate is the best solution but sometimes not
another routine of our library may be useful.
http://www.fz-juelich.de/icg/icg1/idl_icglib/idl_source/idl_ work/rb_lib/find_indices_by_window.pro
http://www.fz-juelich.de/icg/icg1/idl_icglib/idl_source/idl_ html/dbase/download/find_indices_by_window.tar.gz
The difference to value_locate is that your are able to define a window.
We are using this routine by the time synchronisation for means.
