John, just open the file in a text editor (such as BBEdit on the Mac or
any of a number of editors in Unix/Linex), and you will immediately see
its structure. BBEdit has an advantage in that it allows you to
display all control characters as well.

I have downloaded the FCC's Amateur Radio Database. It came down as 1
ZIP'd file and expanded into 9 dat files. I would like to put it on a
CD and use ACCESS to search it but I need some info about the files
and how they are structured. I used FTP and searched around on the
FCC's drive but I wasn't able to come up with any description of the
database. So I guess I am asking if anyone has any info on how the
database is laid out, how it is delimited, how long the fields are,
what info is in each of the files, and stuff like that. Can anyone
help?
