Compress/Decompress Inclustion?

[J. Landman Gay]

Compression is part of the engine so you shouldn't need an inclusion. I've 
seen this error before and usually it's because the string has been altered 
in some way or wasn't compressed with LC or a compatible app.

Do you use binfile when retrieving the file from disk?
