Is 'PATH\FILENAME.dat' really the name of your file!?
I can see you have a literal programming mind. :-)

OK, look. You can't tell my wife about this, because
she thinks IDL consulting is what I get paid for. I can't
put my e-mail here because I already have about 15 years
supply of viagra. If you can figure out from my web page
how to e-mail me, send me the file, and I'll have a look
at it. But please name it something sensible before you
send it to me. :-)

Cheers,

David
