I'm afraid I might not understand you correctly but I can't reproduce your problem. If I created filename.dat and opend it with TeXworks, it opened filename.pdf and re-typesetting caused an error as you explained. But if I opend filename.tex at first, everything went fine as far as I tested. Further, If i created filename.abc (or, I guess, any file filename.xxx), I see the same problem as filename.dat. So I'm not sure if the problem is a real bug as you explained. Please enlighten me. Thanks for your report.
