I haven't been following much of this discussion, but if you
want these variables defined back at the main IDL level,
you might try using SaveToMain after you create them:

http://www.dfanning.com/programs/savetomain.pro

Of course, they can be saved to other IDL levels if you
want. See the innards of SaveTomMain for insight in
how to do this.

Cheers,

David
