As I recall, Berkeley DB provides facilities to look up some arbitrarily formatted data given an arbitrarily formatted key. The structure of the key and its associated data are determined by the program making use of the Berkeley DB library. So... a program that does what you want would have to know the format of the keys and data. That said, there are some programs that have been written for certain applications of Berkeley DB that will do what you want, but only for those applications. E.g, the ``makemap'' program is used to create sendmail databases in Berkeley DB format. The -u option may be used to print the contents of these databases in human readable form. Kevin
