After several replies to my earlier question (for which I am most
grateful), it was suggested that I post my problem to the group for
everyone to "have a crack at it." Apparently some people enjoy this kind
of thing. :^)
I am trying to solve for the value x in an equation similar to the
one below (note, integer on left-hand side of = sign is not necessarily
going to be 1 and ln stands for the natural log):

1 = (ln(1-X))/(ln(1+x))

Since I can't isolate the x, I can't take the easy way out and
just define the variable like I have been doing. It has been suggested
that another program might be easier or even necessary, but I just wanted
to make sure that I exhausted all my possibilities with IDL before I move
on. Thanks a lot for your time...
