In your dark basic ide click on the media button in that box to the right. The tell it where the graphic is and then whne it wants you to confirm, theres a little box that says "move this file to project directory" or someting close, Click that little boc And press ok. The all you do is
load object "flying saucer.3ds",1

If you are using dbpro 3ds support isn't great. It could be that it doesn't like your 3ds file. Some will load, some crash db and others just give a blank screen.

Try converting the file to a .x (direct x) file.
