|    opening .key and .dta files    |
|    15 Sep 05 20:17:12    |
      From: flbos@hotmail.com              Hi,              I've got a big problem. I've got an old program that's written in Turbo       Pascal, I don't know which version. I've only got the compiled executable       (.exe file), I haven't got the source code. The program works with a       database that consists of .dta and .key files which represent the data       tables.              The program has been used for years and the database contains lots of data       that has been build up through these years. The problem is that I stopped       using this program but need to extract the data somehow. My goal is to       convert this Turbo Pascal database to MS Excel or MS Access so that the data       can be used by these MS Office applications.              Is there a way to accomplish this and if so, how? Any help would be very       much appreciated because this is a HUGE problem for me.              Thanks in advance!              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
