cbb-v11.zip is the game data, which includes one of the doors from...

the "door kit" it uses: http://annex.retroarchive.org/cdrom/cotc
3/BBS/DBONLINE.ZIP

it's litearally a door intended to use with dBase/clipper/foxpro stuff.. i'd
guess the author imagined people creating order forms with it they could then
pull with their accounting system.. and this guy made a baseball game out of
it lol

it seems the binary contains both the unregistered and fully registered
versions at least.. it opens dbonline.key and attempts to verify if it's
registered or not, but that's as far as i got (it was late)

from the docs he made it sound like the game is permanently broken though.. he
took steps to prevent running into the database limitation so even with a
registered version of the "parent" door, it would still limit itself
