By default, the file selection dialog box for input files shows files with the .mdb extension. To view other file types, select the appropriate option from the Files of Type list box in the file selection dialog box.
The Files of Type list box contains the type All Text Files (*.*). Select this type to show all files of all types. However, any file you select opens as an ASCII text file. Do not use this option to open binary files.
