what do you mean by width in this: "(table+(y*WIDTH)+x)"  the width of each 
of the peices of info? so the table would be like-

datatable:
  .db   0,4,7,4,5,6

for that, the width would be 1??  and to access the 7 it would be 
"(table+(0*1)+3)"  or simplified:  "(table+3)" ??  what if one of the numbers 
is negative like: 

datatable:
  .db   0,4,7,-4,5,6

is the width still one?  or...

datatable:
  .db   0,4,7,4,25,6

what is the width now? how do i access the 6? thank you for your help... i 
really need it for an upcoming tennis game.. in the ball routine, i need a 
data table to store: 
1)  how much to move the ball in the x direction
2)  how much to move the ball in the y direction
3) how much to move the ball in the z  (height) direction
4) the apex, or highest point the ball reaches
5) other randomly generated stuff

i figured a table is the best and most organized way to do this.. i also 
assumed the quickest, but i dont really know how to do it.  Also, is the 
table written with  .db's   or  .dw's   and what is the difference between 
them?

thanks a lot for your help
