I cannot get 'call_external' to work with V5 of IDL for the Macintosh
using the same code that works fine with V4. Is this a problem for other
Mac user or other platforms?

I haven't had problems under Digital Unix, but have had problems under
Windows. For what it's worth, I used to build my Windows .DLLs using
the Watcom C++ compiler. I never used ".DEF files"; I just needed to
specify the appropriate calling-convention for the routines called from IDL.
These .DLLs crash IDL 5. Apparently you *have to* use the arcane .DEF file
way of building Windows .DLLs for IDL 5.

I haven't had any problems with CALL_EXTERNAL in IDL version 5.0
on Suns under Solaris 2.5, or on SGI's.
