DATA (Analysis Studio Offline Data File) is a .DAT file extension used by SAS Analysis Studio. It contains saved workspaces, data sets, code and log files created with the Analysis Studio software. DAT files stores results of analyses performed for predictive models, statistical models, and exploratory data analysis. The information saved in these files can be used to analyze trends and patterns in large amounts of data, and may include variables, values, labels, statistics, and other metadata.
File Structure
The.DAT file structure contains code syntax defined in LISP-based language, including statements and declarations entered in the Analysis Studio GUI. The syntax describes functions, methods, variables and subroutines used in analysis and data modeling. The DATA file also includes pointers to files containing input and output datasets.
Similar Filetypes
The DATA file extension is mainly associated with SAS, but it can also be used with other programs that offer analysis functionality. Other extensions that store similar types of analysis data are .SAV, .SPV, .SPS, .SPJ, .SRC, .ASTX and more.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .DATA) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .DATA extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .DATA file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .DATA extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .DATA extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .DATA file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .DATA file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .DATA file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .DATA file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .DATA file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
