Did your !DIR variable get changed to '/Volumes/A/'?

As best I can tell, FILEPATH does not change any system variables, it
only returns a string with the path in it, so I'm not sure how anything
got broken.

Thanks, that did the trick, However, in keeping in my long tradition of
breaking something else while I am trying to fix something, I now have a
problem with the DLM path.

IDL> print, !DLM_PATH
/usr/local/rsi/idl_6.0/bin/bin.darwin.ppc

which is corrrect but when I try and access a DLM file I get

% PFXOVER: Error loading sharable executable.
Symbol: IDL_Load, File = /Volumes/A/IDLtoPFgenLib.so
No such file or directory
% Execution halted at: CX 123 /Volumes/A/Kling GA/pFord
Folder/cx1a.pro

I can get around this my putting a copy of IDLtoPFgenLib.so on /Volumes/A/
but how do I fix this?

img = READ_DICOM('/Volumes/A/00130.DCM')

or

img = READ_DICOM(FILEPATH('00130.DCM', SUBDIR=['Volumes', 'A'], $
ROOT_DIR= '/'))

should do the trick.

Hello,

I haven't had this problem and I am also on a mac IDL6.0. Can you confirm the
the library and the module definition file are in the !DLM_PATH? You might try...

HELP, /DLM

to ensure that the dlm parts (*.so and *.dlm) are recognized/found? Don't
forget to reset your session (.full_reset_session) if you have modified the DLM
during a given session.

You might also try to manually force the dlm to load with

DLM_LOAD, 'IDLtoPFgenLib'

but I would expect it to fail since the automatic loading fails. If the HELP
routine finds the DLM parts but it won't load, then it must be your external
code that has a problem (groan).
