A database from back when each table was stored in a separate file. The RPT filenames hint to me that they are preformatted output (with escape codes) intended to be spooled to a specific printer later. The MSL files are small so may be either screen layout definitions or perhaps metadata describing the table files, which would be in the DTP files. I suspect the DTX files would be config/index files for the database application that managed all this, describing the content and relationships of the DTP and MSL files. -ken
