Hi Ken,

thank you for your looking into it. My actual application will in fact have 
HDF5 in the second DataItem. But then I encountered problems and tried to 
figure it out using a simple example first.

Can you confirm that my xmf sample file is syntactically correctly for its 
designated purpose?

Best, Jens.
