Click the function called LoadGame, and select your .dat :) Once that function is called, it loads the .dat file as another exe but in the same window.

LoadGame() function take effect only in exported mode.
You cant use it in editor mode.
Export both game first, the loader and the loaded.
Put both files in the same folder, then try to run it.
