View db in Paradox and convert to oracle server

[Andy]

I have a *.db file which manual indicate it should open in Paradox.
However, I don't have such program and I want to use the data od db file in
my oracle server. So, what can I do?

Thanks.

Actually, you're more likely to get answers in an Oracle newsgroup.
I would suggest, if you have a friend or coworker with either Paradox
or Delphi installed, you ask them to try to open the file, to make
sure it's a Paradox table and contains what you need. The *.db
extension has been known to be used by other software as well, including
Netscape. Oh, and it should be able to be opened by dBASE for Windows
or Quattro Pro's "Database Desktop" as well.

If it is indeed a Paradox table, either have that same friend convert
it to a format you can read, or get the ODBC driver you need.
