You would probably have to inspect the files to figure it out. The PAF file format is available from the LDS. TRACER file format is the same as PAF version 1. ON DISPLAY is written in Basic and the source code distributed so you could get the format from the code. On the others Family Ties, Family Research Manager, Family History, Family Tree, and Progenitor you would have to check the documentation. I have info on all those on ROOTS-BBS if you want to pursue it. OR you might find some of them on your local bbs.
