I've got a real toughie. I have some old data files in a .D0# (like .D01, .D02 etc) format. I have no idea how these were generated or how to extract them to like a CSV or something simple. If i open them as text, some of the strings are there but i do not really have a feel for the encoding.
Any help would be life saving!
Here is a share link to a sample of such a file:

Thanks Ryan
Ok, well using HxD (a hex editor for Windows) I get the following out of the very beginning of the file:
V5.00 Copyright (C) by Compulife Software Inc., 1993
Googling Compulife Software took me here . Their products are here .
A bit more digging around gives:
Compulife offers an historical CD which contains past editions of our software.
The CD also contains instructions about how to install the past editions,
which are in a zipped format.
The history covers almost every month from the current month back to:
April 1990
The hex dump said 1993, so there may be some hope here. I'd say your best bet is to contact Compulife themselves. Failing that I can say that the file appears to have a fixed length record format, with some data as text and some in other 8 or 16bit encodings.
I'd start charging about now.
