Hey Mort! I think there might be some issues with your dll and ENVI
4.5 -- it seems to work fine under ENVI 4.4. The new IDL developer
environment (and runtime?) seems to be pretty different from the
previous versions. Have you had a chance to check out your code under
IDL 7.0 and ENVI 4.5? In the end, I ported the C code for your DLL
and ported it back to IDL to get it to run (I'd be happy to send you
the code if you'd like).
