I have a *.db file, which could be a sybase or a paradox db (not sure
about it). Kindly suggest how to crack the db and get the contents of
the db to MS Access.

Also suggest, how to know if the db is paradox or sybase.

Assuming the file hasn't been compressed or encrypted, a Sybase ASE
backup file would contain the string "sysobjects", so if the unix
command

strings *.db | grep sysobjects

returns anything, it is likely a Sybase backup. Don't know of any way
to get the contents to MS Access short of booting up a server and
extracting the table definitions and data.

Are there free downloads available for SQLAnywhere_1000_Windows.exe
and Sybase ASE ODBC driver? If so where can I find them?

Thanks in advance.
