Hi,
I'm not sure I understand your problem entirely, but maybe objects are
the solution. You can create an object whose "self" structure
contains all the information you wish to store, including the data
pointer. Then you can write methods to do whatever you need, i.e.
read in FITS tables, save to disk, or you can have this done
automatically when the object is initialized. You can share the FITS
file and the object code with collaborators.

If you haven't worked with objects before, here is some information to
get started: http://beauty.nascom.nasa.gov/~zarro/idl/objects/objects.htm l
