Hi Andrew, I like to include numerical data hidden inside buttons, that the user then has to press: With[{temp=Compress[myLargeData]},Button["press to load data",myLargeData = Uncompress[temp];Print["data is now loaded and saved in the variable myLargeData"]]] You can then delete the code, leaving the button there. Put your cursor next to the button, Press Ctrl-Shift-E, and you will see that the underlying code of the button contains a compressed version of your data. A disadvantage of this method is that the button itself can not be pressed "automatically", is if it were an initialization cell. thomas
