Default Where do .DAT files come from when documented is created by Word 2007?

What would cause Word 2007 created files to become .dat files?

Full story: When I receive a file as an Outlook attachemnt it arrives with
the DAT extension. The sender swears the file was created and saved with
Word 2007.
Nonetheless, it can be opened with Word and appears to be fine.

TIA
