    It really depends on which program originally wrote the file.
    What's the file name that you are trying to open ?

    Try opening it with notepad.

    DAT is not an extension associated with a specific program. Many programs will use that extension. Some use a binary format, others use plain text. If it doesn't open in Notepad, then go back to the source of the file and find out was used to create it.
