Wow - you don't get many people with MSDOS databases... I'm not
familar with the internal structure of MSDOS db's, but if it can
export to one or many csv files, then that should be imported
correctly into OOo Base.
It may be that some conversion will have to take place (possibly some
date formats, serial number formats, that sort of thing)... but in
general it should be possible to do.
