Hi

now I am using following c++ commands to read pages from 
multisubdatasets Geotiff file :

         dataset = 
static_cast<GDALDataset*>(GDALOpen(TiffFullName.c_str(), GA_ReadOnly));
         if (dataset == NULL) {
             std::cout << "Failed to open subdataset nr = " << subsets 
<< " Read command =  " << TiffFullName << std::endl;
             break;
         }
         else
             std::cout << "Subdataset readed = " << subsets << " Read 
command =  " << TiffFullName << std::endl;

And getting following result :

Subdataset readed = 1 Read command = 
GTIFF_DIR:1:F:\3D-data\GeoTIFFs\autzen.1.tiff
ERROR 4: F:\3D-data\GeoTIFFs\autzen.1.tiff: Requested directory 2 not found.
Failed to open subdataset nr = 2 Read command = 
GTIFF_DIR:2:F:\3D-data\GeoTIFFs\autzen.1.tiff

Does this command works properly and how I can get information about 
subdatasets in GeoTiff file

Regards

Raivo
