Ok, I've got a few files that I'm trying to read, but they are in odd formats. I think some of them are PalmOS files, because I seem to remember some of the extensions from when I used a PalmPilot a bit, but others I don't recognize.
Does anyone know of a Windows XP program that can view (even if not edit) the following types of files:
.lit .pdb .prc
The puzzling thing is that I must have known programs to view these files originaly, I found them in a "Misc" folder on my automatic backup hard drive when I was going through it to free up space... I don't even know what they are, the names are pretty cryptic (I have a bad habbit of giving files names like 1.*, asdf.*, etc, under the assumption I'll always remember what they were somehow...)

.pdb is a Palm database, and if the .prc was with it, its most likely a Palm resource file. The .lit file is most likely an eBook. There's a program called "Convert LIT" that can make it into text. ( http://www.convertlit.com/) As for reading the .pdb & .prc files, I'm not sure if you can outside of the PalmOS. Maybe a PalmOS emulator could help?

Depending on where the file came from, PDB may also be a debug file. When you build a project in Visual Studio in debug mode, it creates a corresponding PDB file for each DLL. Again, this depends on the source though - if it is with a bunch of other Palm OS files, then yeah it probably is a db - but PDB is not universal to just that file type.
