If you're ever looking to migrate off of that a better starting point is finding a way to dump the DBF files into CSV (there's a perl script for this that works wonders called DBF2CSV but I hear LibreOffice can just open these files too)...

After inheriting a project where the source code CDROM went missing I can definitely see a use case for at least trying with the latest frontier models to rescue the logic because it took me a while to reverse that thing manually to fix a bug with radare2
