The readcol.pro procedure is part of the IDL Astronomy
http://idlastro.gsfc.nasa.gov/ and requires the following other
procedures from the Library to be present in your !PATH

PROCEDURES CALLED
GETTOK(), NUMLINES(), STRNUMBER()

You can either download the entire library or grab the procedures you
need from the search page
http://idlastro.gsfc.nasa.gov/idllibsrch.html

Or as Haje said, there are many other ways to read an ASCII file,
including the READ_ASCII() function that comes with IDL.
