### 8.3.2. Displaying the Content of a File

You can use the (More) > Display > Content action (or the Content display tab if the object is already opened) to display the content of a file object. You can only view content of files that can be displayed in a web browser such as text, XML, HTML, image files, and so on. If you view the content of a binary file that the browser does not know how to display, you will be prompted to download the file. This display option is available only if a user has `download` permission on the file.

If you upload a VCollab `.cax` file to a repository, EKM will recognize it as a `VCollab File` type. When you display the file’s content, the VCollab viewer will load in the file list window and will display the 3D simulation image for that file. See Displaying 3D Simulation Images Using VCollab for more details.
