RESTORE restores the data pointer to a line number if you are using line numbers (something to avoid) or a label whether you are using line numbers or not.

Provided you use labels to mark different DATA sections, you should have no trouble finding the data you are looking for, no matter what a rouge include does to the data pointer.
