Re-packing *.dat files

[Letum]

I can work out how to extract *.dat files and edit the bits I want.

Can anyone give me a quick explanation as to how to re-pack the *.dat s?
No need for details I think, just point me in the right direction.

I have PACK3D and Silent 3ditor.

Useing Pack3d, version 2!!!!
(Other versions can, and often do, move things in wierd ways)
select the object you want to replace,
hit import.

Hang on....I clicked Import, selected the file and nothing seamed to change?
Where is the new *.dat with the changes?

*edit* ah, it is complaining about lack of a *.cam file.
