hi,
Is there a way to open a file in emacs in outline mode?
Either with a switch, or file name extension? Better still to open the
file in a collapsed form

There are multiple ways. You could have the line:
-*- outline -*-
on the first line of the file, or use a "Local Variables" section
at the end of the file. See the section "File Variables" in the
Emacs manual, (Info-goto-node "(emacs)File Variables"), for more
detailed information.
If you want all files with an extension .txt to open in outline
mode, you can customise the variable `auto-mode-alist', e.g.
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.txt$" . outline-mode))

Lawrence gave several good solutions. You could also invoke emacs as
emacs FILE --eval '(outline-minor-mode 1)'
