I realize that the context of this line is missing, but I'm puzzled why this line of code: pfss_restore, pfss_time2file('2003-04-05', /ssw_catalog, /url,version=2) ... runs OK in IDL version 8.2 but gives me a syntax error in version 8.3. It appears to have something to do with the parens, but I'm at a loss beyond that. pfss_restore and pfss_time2file are both .pro files. Any thoughts? Thanks, Bill Arden

I wonder if the problem might be that "pfss_time2file" and "pfss_restore" are in the IDL 8.2 path but not the IDL 8.3 path. Try opening the .pro files using the ".edit" command. For example: .edit pfss_restore If this doesn't work then these routines might not be included in the IDL path. You can modify the IDL_PATH using the PREF_SET command: http://exelisvis.com/docs/prefs_directory.html http://exelisvis.com/docs/PREF_SET.html Or by using projects: http://exelisvis.com/docs...entWithProjects.html

David - Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Yes, I think you're right - I've fixed the problem. Again, I apologize for not getting back to you sooner. Thanks! Bill Arden
