It depends on your .dat file content...
Can you be a little more specific ?

this .dat file was created by Microsoft SQL from my customer but It was too big ( 3.7 GB) and I'm unable to open it with SQL.
It contains data from a select query.

Can you be more specific about what you're trying to do with the data in the file? This size of file implies a humungous amount of data. One thing to look at might be creating a more efficient SQL query to get only pertinent results. But all that depends on what is your purpose for the file.
