I guess I was using the IDL 7 version. :-)
I just checked. Yes, I was using the IDL 7 version,
and it appears to be different from the IDL 6.4 version,
according to the documentation. I'm surprised I found
the right documentation, frankly, because I almost always
use the IDL 6.4 help, rather than the IDL 7.0 just for its
speed. A miracle! :-)
Cheers,
David
