      Here[^]. The obvious way to retrieve the data is to use Access. That's what created them. If you mean how to get to the data in code, then there's tons of info on the web. We couldn't possibly help more, as you don't say what language you're using, if that's what you mean.

        I think you mean .mdb files - those are created by Access.

          These are the SQL Server database (mdf) and log (ldf) files. You can view the objects using SQL Server Management Studio.

              Looks like you haven't read my reply... these are SQL Server databases, not Access files
