Hi Joaquin,

funny thing, I used that syntax in the example but did not try it really in 
the code. Talk about intuitive interface :) The only thing I had to do was to 
add a "typename" before "T::" and everything seems to be ok now. Sorry about 
the noise, I'm quite a newbie C++ programmer and I could not find the answer 
in the headers.

_I_ am the one who should thank you :) I'm writing this astronomical program 
to manipulate Poisson series (which are to be ordered in different ways at 
the same time), and multiIndex really lifted a lot of weight from my 
shoulders.

My only possible concern about multiIndex is how much widespread is its use in 
the C++ programming community. Knowing that there are many people adopting it 
would really make me feel safer, since I'm going to use it _very_ heavily in 
my software.

Anyway, thanks very much, for multiIndex and your answer :)
