Re: how to view and open file.db & file.mdb?

Sorry if this question has been answered.  You can use
the file command to figure out what type of file it
is.

" file filename " or you can use the ls command.  If
its a text file, use your fav text editor like VI.

The world of Unix and Unix variants doesn't depend on filename extensions
for file types. Which program you would use would depend on the individual
file.
