title: Reading Paradox Database files
body: <p>I'm working with a client who has an existing system, built on what is apparently a Paradox database.  I've got the database, in the form of a zip file containing .DB, .MB and .PX files, one for each table.</p>
  
  <p>I need to take (some) of this data and import it in to a Web application that's using MySQL.  Does anybody have a way for me to extract this data, that doesn't involve installing Paradox?  </p>
  
  <p>If not, does Paradox export in some readable format?  Either as SQL or something that can be parsed reasonably easily?  The person in charge of this system for my client is a volunteer (they're a non-profit), so I'd like to go to him with a solution - because last time I asked for the data, I got this, which is clearly no good.</p>
