Ah, so you're on a Mac. Well, then I'll have to get C++ et al installed and
maybe do a hands on approach myself (I'm the kind of guy that neary *always*
tries to do things himself :-). For a current course I should be thinking
about getting Visual Studio and get C++, OpenGL, OpenInventor and QT
installed and running... Sigh.

Thanks for the response though. Reading the file once and then doing a
second pass while writing/storing the data would have been exactly what I'd
have done, if I'd programmed it. :-)
