Hello Rene, I'm trying to use the function TF1::FixParameter(Int_t,Double_t). It does not seem to be there. I see it in the write up, but when I try to execute it complains that it does not exist. Also <tab> completion does not find it, but does find other functions, such as GetParameter. ? Thanks, Art S. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rene Brun" <brun@pcbrun.cern.ch> To: "Arthur E.
