I was curious if I can compress data in an Allegro datafile.. then use the datafile routines to read in each file from the datafile, and then save them as seperate uncompressed files. What I'm saying is can I use a datafile like a .zip file? I'm pretty sure that the compression won't be as good.. but if this is possible can someone give me some pointers as to how it should be done? Thanks in advance... Jaster
