I've been struggling to get pytables and the underlying HDF5 library working on python in OS X, so thought I'd give the Enthought distribution a go (which will also greatly simplify deployment across platforms later on). I installed EPD 7.3 for 64-bit OS X (I'm running 10.8.2), but unfortunately no success, I get the following when trying to load the pytables... <pre><code>In [4]: import tables --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ImportError Traceback (most recent call last) /<ipython-input-4-389ecae14f10> in <module>() ----> 1 import tables /Users/davidperry/Library/Python/2.7/lib/python/site-packages/tables/__init__.py in <module>() 57 58 # Necessary imports to get versions stored on the Pyrex extension ---> 59 from tables.utilsExtension import getPyTablesVersion, getHDF5Version 60 61 __version__ = getPyTablesVersion() ImportError: dlopen(/Users/davidperry/Library/Python/2.7/lib/python/site-packages/tables/utilsExtension.so, 2): Symbol not found: _SZ_BufftoBuffCompress Referenced from: /Users/davidperry/Library/Python/2.7/lib/python/site-packages/tables/utilsExtension.so Expected in: flat namespace in /Users/davidperry/Library/Python/2.7/lib/python/site-packages/tables/utilsExtension.so </code></pre> I presume this means that szip, a required library for HDF5, cannot be found? If it is actually missing from EPD (seems odd...), can I install it myself without building HDF5 from source? Or is is just in a strange place?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
