Dear Stephen:
    I believe Tony has two errors. I am addressing the first and you are
addressing the second. The first:

Error!  LPM_ROM must have data file for initialization.

is I believe a model issue and that is what I have been describing. The
second:

ERROR: $readmemh parameter must be a constant
                   0:Error!  Invalid address.

is the error you have been addressing, and I understand and appreciate where
you are coming from.  Tony needs to understand and solve the first on his
own and download your new code for the second.
