[QUOTE="Phoenix, post: 539194, member: 8133"] Have you tried unzipping the zip files to see whats inside? Changing the extension will only work if the software is expecting a zip file that has been given the BAK extension (while possible, probbaly unlikely). What file format does the new one store its database as? While a lot of file extensions are sort of standardised as to what file type they refer to *.BAK is generally just something thats used to refer to a backup of anything, and they are likely to be the same filetype as the program normally usees, but renamed to a *.BAK to differeniate the backup versions (unless the program does something special with backups - which is a possibility) so *.BAK doesn't really tell you anything about it on its own [/QUOTE]
