Hi, I'm just getting started with Root, so perhaps this question is a little off. I'm using the NT version, the most recent development version. I converted a 3 meg PAW ntuple to a ROOT file. I then wanted to browse the contents of the file (basically, I wanted to do a "ntuple/print" on the guy). The instructions for the conversion talk about using the TBrowser. So, first I created a TFile that pointed to the file, and that worked just fine. I then created a browser object and up poped the window just fine. I was even able to find the instance of the file object under the global varriables section. However, when I clicked on the file object (as when I clicked on almost anything else) I got an error saying the "Browse" method needs to be over-ridden. What is the proper method to look for the various branchs and trees, etc. that are in a file? I was able, in the end, to see what was in the file by getting the ntuple object, and then invoking the "MakeCode" method on it. BTW, in the instructions for doing this (in the HOWTO section of the web pages) you have the call written as "MakeCode.C("filename.c");" The ".C" isn't valid as far as I can tell. Finally, I note that ROOT on NT seems to be built with MSVC 4.0. I will need to build some libraries and add them to ROOT as sharable (I guess). Unfortunately, I've only got access to 5.0. Anyone using this configuration: are there any potholes I should know about? Thanks for your help. Cheers, Gordon.
