Hello,
I am making an editor for a game Im making and I started putting everything
into dat files, but I have one problem.
I have loaded the dat file correctly. 
It won't compile the following because it says there is an Undeclared
variable when the variable is exacly the same as the name inside the dat
file and I am doing exacly the same way as in example 12 and that works !!!
(the full code is attached 1kb  small)
The pictures in the dat file are 16 bit compiled sprites (tiles) and the
mouse image is a 16 bit bitmap. (It worked before I added dat files)

draw_compiled_sprite(active_page, tiledata[LAND1_TGA].dat, x,y);
						^
and

draw_sprite(active_page, tiledata[MOUSE_BMP].dat, x,y);
					^
					|
				IT says undefined variable when 
				the MOUSE_BMP and LAND_TGA 
				are the same as the name in the dat file !

If that is not enough the full thing is attached ! > 0.5k

thanks !!,

Oliver Batchelor
