.dat files usually contain custom file structures unique to the program, you may be lucky in that it just contains text in which cas drag and drop the file into notepad, if you only see garbage then it contains binary data and the only way of getting to this data is either spend years trying to figure it out, or talk nicely to someone in Peachtree to see if they can supply any help.
