Reading HDF5 Variable [message #42521]

Folks,

Does anyone know if it is even *possible* to learn how
to access a variable from an HDF5 file from the IDL
documentation!?

I really don't have a week to figure this out. Does
anyone have a simple example. I can see and access
the data with H5_QUERY. But I can't make any sense
of the palette that is suppose to be attached to the
data. It is 976 elements long. That doesn't even
begin to divide by 256. :-(

What I am trying to do is extract a 2D image and its
accompanying palette in order to build and save a JPEG
file. (Typically I don't mind spending hours and hours
researching a topic, but the FAFSA Student Aid forms
are due today and I'm working on income taxes. :-(

Thanks,

David
