    ummmm.... that is a very general question.... a .dat (data) file can hold literally anything... music, images, hi scores, level data.... you name it - you can slap a .dat on the end of it.... therefore the data within could be of any format...

    it could be a simple BMP renamed witht a .dat extention... compressed data, or other....

    so extracting the information from a generalizd format would be a done on a file on file basis... thus being a time consuming affair.....

    it all boils down to weither you or somewlse wants to spend the time extracting it...

    Are you trying to pull the BIG.DAT off of your Action Replay? I know it has skips intentionally written to the disc that Isobuster or Alcohol 120% can get around.
