setting the path for READ_DICOM [message #36029]

Greetings:

I need to read in a DICOM image. This obviously is trivial but I am
hung up on getting the path set correctly. I am using IDL V6 on Mac OS
X and X11. The file I want to open is

/Volumes/A/00130.DCM

I am trying to open it using the following:

Pro testdicom
img = READ_DICOM(FILEPATH('00130.DCM', SUBDIR=['Volumes', 'A']))
tvscl, img
end

and I get the following error message:

READ_DICOM: The file /usr/local/rsi/idl_6.0/Volumes/A/00130.DCM is not
in a supported DICOM format.

I have fooled around with !PATH, the preferences, openr, etc.

I want to avoid moving the file to /usr/local/rsi/idl_6.0 because of
its root privileges and invisibility.

OK, so what do I need to do to set the correct path?

Thanks
