ESO-MIDAS uses HLZ files as part of its help system. The files store the text displayed as help for the system and its commands or tasks.
HLZ files are ASCII text files, so their contents can be viewed as text. They are software support files intended to be read by the ESO-MIDAS help facility.
This file type is associated with the Microsoft Windows version of ESO-MIDAS.
Open the .hlz file with ESO-MIDAS on Microsoft Windows. The software's help facility is the appropriate way to display the file's contents and formatting.
Because the file is ASCII text, a plain-text editor can also open it for inspection, although it may not present the help content as ESO-MIDAS does.
HLZ files are software-specific help files and normally do not need conversion. Keep the file in its original form so that ESO-MIDAS can use it.
If only the text is needed, it can be copied or saved from a text editor into a standard text or document format, but this may not preserve the formatting or usability of the ESO-MIDAS help content.
