If you are using NNTP, just copy the text of the .dat file (it's really just a text file) into your post to a Lugnet .dat group. If
you are using the web interface, when you create a post to a Lugnet .dat group, there's a place to enter the name of a .dat file to
send with the message.

LDLite can display .dat files directly from the Lugnet .dat newgroups. Once you've installed LDLite, you select a .dat group
message from the web interface, and there's an option to view the .dat file. Select this option, then let you're PC know that you
want to view it with LDLite, and "bingo", you've got your view.
If you only have NNTP or e-mail, you can copy the text of a .dat posting to a new .dat file on your hard drive, then use LDraw or
LDLite to view it.

It's always great to see new people getting into Lego CAD. We look forward to seeing your models!
