[HelpDesk] Starting with LDraw

[Jedi]

The article in the link below will help you get start using LDraw and creating .ldr files.  
.DAT files are no longer used for creating LDraw models but continue to be used for the LDraw parts library.  BOTH formats .ldr and .dat are compatible with each other.
