Pass protected data : opening

Rajeshms
Dear all,

I gave a password protection for my data. And If I need to open it ,that is via File---->Open------> data--------> I can reopen after entering the exact password..................!

But If I directly double click on the pass protected data, as we usually do on non protected data, It doesn't open correctly. I mean if we just double click on the pass protected data, it opens the usual text importing wizard and opens a data set which is not what we wanted. It opens special / junk characters. 

So why is this happening and is there any problem in this method. I just want to know what I did was correct or wrong.

Thanks all

If I double click a protected sav file, I am prompted for a password, and the file opens correctly.
