You really don't want to alter that dat. file. You will probably corrupt it and loose what ever data is stored there. Try and find the right program to open it with. Righ click on the file and click on "open with" this will give you a list of programs or the option to go online to try and hunt it down.

jimgarrity@att.net You can forward a .dat file to a gmail account, Google email account, and view the documents within gmail or download the file as a .doc or other standard extension.

Why does windows download your document in symbols?

Windows may display a document in symbols or gibberish due to a file encoding mismatch, where the software used to open the file does not recognize the encoding format. This can occur if the document is corrupted, if it's opened with an incompatible application, or if the file extension does not match the actual file type. Ensuring the correct application is used, or checking the file integrity, can help resolve the issue.

What allows the user to change the attributes of a file such as location file name or file type?

Well it would help if the question was a bit more specific but... in say Microsoft word i could change the files name by doing a save as, this would not only allow me to set the file name but also the format that i would be saving the file in and where i want to save it. In say windows explorer (just having a file open in Windows) you can right click on any file and select properties and from there you can select and change the file name, extension format. also in windows explorer i can change the file location by simply copy/cutting it from one location to another. Sorry for the long answer but try to be specific to program and situation...
