How do you load a matrix that has been created with magic world, matedit, etc. into a db program?

Depends really on how the creator of the program decides to save the matrix.

both magic world and matedit use a separate .dba file containing the function to load the matrix. The dba files come with the program itself.

MatEdit uses a serie of declarations too. Which is also noted in the dba file containing the function. The declarations are used to store data like tiles, size and points that you specified.

MagicWorld doesn't have this, but is easier to handle if you don't need this information.

It's the programmer's life:
Have a problem, solve the problem, and have a new problem to solve.

I found the db file and saw what you mean. I know now how to load it. Thanks, Sven.
