that look about right depending on your image size and how many images you want to get from it, at the moment your trying to get 11 images. the use the:
sprite spritenumber,spritex,spritey,imagenumber
to make,position and change the image of the sprite

You know whats weird???
Donald duck never wore pants, yet everything time he got out of the shower he put a towel around his waist...

Try this one:
CREATE ANIMATED SPRITE Sprite Number, Filename, Across, Down, Image Number

So I smiled and was happy, and things got worse...

If that's how you create an animated sprite, how come it only specifies one filename? Or am I missing an obvious joke?

No, he's right.

What you do is lay out all your images in a grid on a single bitmap. You then load that bitmap into an image, then use the CREATE ANIMATED SPRITE command to tell DBPro how many images are in the grid (across then down).

Your images are laid out like this:
01 02 03 04 05
06 07 08 09 10
11 12 13 14 15
