hi people!
creating a .DAT file is not so much of a prob, i know you can just give it a .DAT extention name.
what i would like to know is how data is stored o the file and hows it is retreived.
any suggestions??

This was asked a while ago?
.dat can mean anything.....what app are you hoping to use it for
application?
I am coding a prog to accept data froma dat file stored on an a: drive, which will then do several calculations then output it to a printer,
my problem is i need to create a dat file with data to test the program,i'm not sure how data is stored within a dat file.
Do i just type a load of text/numbers seperated with comma's,then save as PROG.DAT?
or is there a specific layout that i should be looking at?

A .dat file could be anything......
Pick a method you feel comfortable with and go with it........
As long as your .das files arent read by another app...there's no problem
