Is there anyone out there who can help???

I am trying to write a program in C that will delve into a MapInfo .dat file and look 
for a specific instance of a string within the data.  I have got most of the code 
working bar one crucial element - actually getting inside the .dat file and looking 
around.

Does anyone have a specification, or know where one is, that will allow me to see what 
the structure of a .dat file is.  Alternatively, does anyone have some C code knocking 
around that looks inside a .dat file they would be happy to give me?

All help will be greatly appreciated!!!!
