Hi,

Is it possible to open a Palm Database with the FileOpen Palm API call?
I understand how Databases work and how files work. Are they
cross-compatible? If it is possible is there an example somewhere I can
see?

A file stream is a specific kind of database. You can open a file stream DB using DmOpenDatabase, but FileOpen can't open a random database. If you need to see a Palm OS database in serialized format, use the ExgDbWrite call to convert it to PDB form.
