can't see contents of .DAT file with notepad on win server 2008
existing batch file on pc running win nt 4.0 file copy/rename shared location on win server 2008 folder. copied/renamed file has .dat extension (which opened notepad when copied win 2000 server folder) required/used properietary utility import contents of .dat file custom application sql db. though batch file copy/rename produce file appropriate file size @ destination location (matching file size @ origin), when opened notepad @ destination, blank. mentioned, when executed win 2000 server folder, worked fine. there restriction within win 2008 server that prevents .dat file contents being viewed?
