Miro,
You'll need to write a custom conduit to get the data in a fomat that Excel
can read. PDB is a binary format without field info data to parse data
types. So if Excel could read it, you could never get the data fields right
without more information.
We did this for Datastick Connection last year where data read by the A/D of
our Palm product was saved as binary records in a PDB file. On HotSync, our
conduit parsed the records and output the data as regular tab delimited
text. This common file format allows importation into many stats packages
including Excel.
Good luck!
