Are your models in the ldraw\ or ldraw\models\ directory?
Did you type the command line correctly?
It should look something like this:

C:\LDRAW\>ldraw myfile.dat
(see http://library.advanced.org/20551/ldraw.html for more about running
ldraw from the command line.)

If that's not the problem, make sure there are no errors in your DAT file
- try opening the file in LEdit to find typos. (It'll crash when it finds
one)
Hope that helps!

Bram, you're a genius. Or maybe I'm just and idiot. I just remembered I have
two copies of the program in different areas of my computer. It serves me right
for keeping old junk!
I got my stuff up just fine.

THANKS
