But it still does not read the data from the .cfg file.
I guess it has to be linked using item id?
I believe the itemid is only used to track the positioning of items being displayed...it doesn't provide a link to variable data within other files. Just in case you haven't seen it, there's a very good tutorial about the basic workings of the menu.ini here:

I agree with you about not fine tuning things to the point where all measurements are precise (therefore, making it too easy). 'Realism' is always most important for me, also.

However, this little project doesn't have anything to do with range estimates. It's actually an attempt to try to add some useful realism to the in-game recognition manual, only so that people who might want to use it don't have to go out-of-game to get necessary target ship info.
