I am trying to figure out what the data files origination is, or rather, what will properly open some data I have; this was created by some C++ programmers a while back and no one left int he company with whom I am contracting can figure out what they've got; they only know that it works with the code the guy wrote for them. What a mess. FoxPro for DOS and Windows won't open it. Notepad opens it, but it looks like it too. I haven't tried MS Access yet. Does anyone have any idea what this could be?

The tables have no file extensions in order to conceal what they are. The Index files don't have file extensions either, but as part of the naming convention, the last part of the INDEX file's name is IDX.

This is a mystery that I need to uncover as soon as possible; if anyone has any ideas that would help, I'd sure appreciate hearing them.
