Richard Harding Wise Nutrition Coaching	I have inherited a DB application, written in delphi, that needs to be re-written. All I have is the exe file and data tables. The data tables have an extension of dta and prg. There does not appear to be any indexing. Does anyone know what type of database this could be? Thank you . . . Richard Harding

Richard Harding Wise Nutrition Coaching	Thank you Uli. It looks like files are just text files. One of the "tables" contains fields that are text only. The first byte of each "column" contains the length of the field followed by the text. No other information is in the file. The files into memory at the start of the program. So it does not appear to be a DB program after all. Richard
