After installing IDL 7/ENVI 4.5 I put the DLL in
Program Files\ITT\IDL7.0\BIN\BIN.x86\
That works fine for me. But it also runs on my setup if it's in the
Windows directory. Are you using only the programs on the website and
not mixing with older versions?
Cheers,
Mort

My guess would be C:\Program Files\ITT\IDL70

Hey Mort! I think there might be some issues with your dll and ENVI
4.5 -- it seems to work fine under ENVI 4.4. The new IDL developer
environment (and runtime?) seems to be pretty different from the
previous versions. Have you had a chance to check out your code under
IDL 7.0 and ENVI 4.5? In the end, I ported the C code for your DLL
and ported it back to IDL to get it to run (I'd be happy to send you
the code if you'd like).
