What is a DO file?

DO files mostly belong to Stata by StataCorp. A DO file is a Java servlet that can be hosted by web servers like Tomcat and WebSphere which support Java programming language. It contains HTML, XML, Java classes which can process HTTP requests and responses. Another type of DO file is a script which Stata statistical data analysis software uses to automate batch data analysis. It contains commands and references to static data used for a batch analysis. DO is also the filename extension of a script used to implement FPGA circuits in ModelSim. Global Mapper GIS software saves geographic data in DO files.

How do you open DO files?

You need a suitable software like Stata to open a DO file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your DO file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a DO file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.

DO format details:

A file format defines how the data in the file is structured. The file format can be deduced from the file extension and the signature. Frequently, however, one file extension is used by different programs for different file formats, and one file format for different file extensions. So a detailed analysis of a file is vital in order to determine the format and the associated program. Below you will find our evaluation of the DO files:
