hi Eben,

HDF5 Tables are a specific format of HDF5 file, and I suspect that's what you're running into here - you are not really creating a "table" according to the HDF5 Tables API. IDL has no native interface for writing HDF5 tables, however I have written an IDL library to do this.

you can look here:

http://www.github.com/superchromix/wmb_lib

the library does not have great documentation, but look in the directory

source/hdf5/h5tb

for the file wmb_h5tb_examples.pro, and this will show you how to use the library to create HDF5 compliant tables from IDL.

Another method of testing your HDF5 files: try to open them with HDF View, a freely distributed program for viewing all types of HDF5 data.
