   That's Paradox all right.

   Paradox 7 or later can open all Paradox table levels (the last change to   
   the table format was in p7, so that or anything more recent will work).   
     Check out whatever Steve has to offer.   
      
   Alternately, you could look for Paradox database drivers for Excel or   
   Access.  I thought Microsoft had one, in which case, that ought to be   
   good enough for conversion (unless it needs the BDE or something).  I've   
   never converted Paradox files without Paradox...
