Thanks to Hussein Gadain and Ricardo Bomfim Machado for their responses
to my question:

>From Hussein Gadain:

I am not sure whether you are aware of WINDISP4 (the latest version of
windisp3). In that software it is possible to extract the median values
from a boundary file in this case it is your vector file.

1. go to windisp4
2. select process import idrisi vector
3. your idrisi vector is now a bna file.
4. go to process extract stas median. your images should be listed  in a
.lst fiel if you have many images. otherwise enter the image name (it
should aslo be in windisp4 format, use the same import function to import
it from idrisi)

You can download windisp4 at: http://ag.arizona.edu/~epfirman/windisp4.html
install it you PC and try.

I am sure many things will arise and will like this software. The software
was designed nmainly for FEWS and USAID to help display and alaysis of
satellite data, mainly CCD, RFE and NDVI.

>From Ricardo Bomfim Machado:

There is another way to get the cell value to perform
statistics. You can create a mask map and use the QUERY
command, which extracts the cells values to a ASCII file.
Then, you can import it in a statistical package and execute
the statistic procedure that you want. This method is only
painful when you have many areas to extract the values.

Thanks again,
