Opening .dat files created by Excel for Mac
I createsd an Excel workbook on a Mac and emailed it to my self. The atchment is .dat (but that may have just been added by my email program as macs don't have file extensions, Ithink). I cannot open it in Excel XP running on Windows XP. I tried renaming it .xls and various other excel extensions but it still tells me that it dosen't recognize the file. If I open it in a text editor, I can clearly see many of the custom number formats, names, lables, and some cell values I used in the file, as well as formating for a graph I encluded, the name of the worksheets and meaningless characters (which I assume serve some purpose to excel). The make up looks very similar to when I open a workable excel spreadsheet in a text editor. Onviously there is a problem with my file extension and/or file format. The file seems to contain the data and I don't think it is corrupted, it just won't open in Excel. There seem to have been other examples of people wanting to open a .dat file they say was created in excel on this forum, yet no solution was ever posted and no mention of a possible Mac origin of the file was mentioned. If anyone can help me with this or has encountered a similar problem, I would love to here any opinions you might have.

quick create form contact
