That's exactly why adding a shortcut to either notepad or quikview into your send-to menu is such a help. It lets you view the header of any file from a simple rightclick within explorer. For example to see which version of autocad created a dwg.
EDIT
On non NT systems Notepad has a filesize limitation of about 40K
