    My pleasure :-)
    
    I have made a few quick plots - have a look at
    www.fys.uio.no/~bjornhs/ZDCvsTPM1_profile.ps
    www.fys.uio.no/~bjornhs/ZDCvsTPM1_DiffVsMult.ps
    
    The first one is simply ZDC vs TPM1 showing a nice linear rel. over at
    least z=pm35cm.
    
    The second one is more interesting - as requested, a profile of
    Z_ZDC-Z_TPM1 vs multiplicity (I have used BB_Mult because that was easiest
    from my tree - if you think that this causes a problem I can redo for some
    other mult-version). As you can see there really seems to be a
    mult-dependence on the difference - it is well fitted by a 2nd order
    poly. As of yet I have no ide as to the reason for this - I'll have a more
    thorough look at the TPM1 Vertex output to see if there is anything there
    that might cause problems, otherwise I guess slewing corrections are a
    good place to start. My data are from runs 2529, 2530, 2531, 2535.
    
    I'll check this better during the day... Ping :-)
