Fons,

I went to this page and tried t->SetEstimate(t->GetEntries()) and it won't
let me call GetEntries in the argument:

nevis1:emcal/calib> root -l

CINT/ROOT C/C++ Interpreter version 5.13.83, Dec 2 1998
Type ? for help. Commands must be C++ statements.
Enclose multiple statements between { }.
root [0] f = new TFile("emcBeam.root")
(class TFile*)0x0
root [1] f->ls()                      
TFile**         emcBeam.root
 TFile*         emcBeam.root
  KEY: TTree    t;1     test beam data for timing studies
root [2] t->SetEstimate(t->GetEntries())
Error: No symbol t->GetEntries() in current scope  FILE:/var/tmp/daaa006P_
LINE:1
*** Interpreter error recovered ***
root [3] int N = t->GetEntries()
root [4] t->SetEstimate(N)
root [5] .q

Is this something wierd that has been fixed in the newer versions of root?
