Hi
Many .dat files are used internally by applications and may not be meant to be opened or edited manually.
However if you know the content/context you may be able to open with Notepad or VLC.
Take a copy and change .dat to .txt or .mp3 etc etc.
You post is quite brief and gives no real info on what you have tried, or where the file originated.
