.SQL files are basically queries or sets of queries, so what the exact file you are referring to does is very much dependant on what it contains! It could drop and create tables, insert rows, or delete databases - anything in fact that you can do from the "New query" window in SSMS.

So, use the menu: "File...Open...File"
Browse to the file, and click "Open". A Query window will open which will let you look at the file content, and optionally execute it.

What does the SQL do? Have you looked inside the file at the SQL commands?
