Hi David,

IDL Version 7.0.4, Mac OS X (darwin x86_64 m64). (c) 2008, ITT Visual
Information Solutions
IDL> knee=LoadData(24)

KNEE LONG = 0

IDL Version 7.0.4, Mac OS X (darwin i386 m32). (c) 2008, ITT Visual
Information Solutions
IDL> knee=LoadData(24)
IDL> help, knee
KNEE INT = Array[256, 256]

With 7.0.4, the default memory model switched to 64 bits on the Mac.
Unfortunately,
the IDLffDICOM object is not available in 64-bit mode. Your demo works
ok in 32-bit
mode (start with idl -32). The quickest fix might be to use the
GDLffDICOM object
(http://barnett.id.au/idl/Projects.html) all the time. I may try to
wrap GDLffDICOM
in a DLM so I can use IDLffDICOM in 32-bit mode and have the same code
still work (although a bit
slower, perhaps) in 64-bit mode.
Hope this helps,
Bill Dieckmann
