I know nothing about LDL files (I've used only PDoxDOS, not PDoxWIN). 
'Values' in the LDL files could be internal pointers, internal flags, 
etc, or actual data values.

In one spot, values of 144, 51, 307, or 36865, could be data values?

In another, a 'data value' might be 4356, or 1028?

Are there four Int/SmallInt/LongInt values in there, in total?

I've assumed the file does not contain "N" fields (Fl-Point).
