Completed Posted Sep 28, 2005 Paid on delivery
Completed Paid on delivery

I have a corrupted file from an old Macintosh ClarisWorks database. The table is unreadable by the original application but if the file is opened, much of the data can be read as ASCII. One file is a contact database, the other is some other data. I need someone to essentially skim the readable information and attempt to relate it back together and give me 2 tab separated text files back. I can provide samples of a few contacts to help determine the method of organization. It looks as follows: Name 1 Name 2 etc Email 1 Email 2 I will also provide a few of the contacts entries that I have that are complete to help the programmer determine the order. For an linux/sed friendly programmer this should be an easy but interesting problem. Due to the nature of this work, I am prepared to provide the full fee if the work is not successful. I will provide the files, as they are, upon acceptance of the bid.

## Deliverables

2 tab separated text files with as much of the original data recovered as possible. OR a written explanation of the attempts used to recover if unsuccessul, along with a text file with as much recovered as possible.
