[erlang-questions] simple ets question

[Roger Critchlow]

Good day all --

Can anyone explain the following to me?  This is using a copy of
otp_src_R12B-0 that I compiled under Ubuntu yesterday.

I expected statement #2 to return the same value as statement #3.

The actual problem arises using another ets: function that specifies a
Tid | atom as the ets table identifier, and it throws a bad argument
error.

Many thanks,
