I am trying to make a 3d modeler in Dark Basic. I found out how to copy a 3ds model, or .x model, and how to scale it. My question is how do you saved a SCALED model once you have scaled it during gameplay? I am usin the expansion pack also.

Dude, you can save the model as a memblock and then save the memblock as a file. This will be OK if you're saving the model to be used in another Dark Basic application as you can just make a new memblock from that file when you need the model.

If you need to save in a different format (like .x or .3ds) then you wil have to write a translation routine which takes all the vertex and normal data and rearranges it into the right format.
