The last part of the file-name suggests that the data is from a DB2 database, if this is the case then you can use Stat/Transfer to convert the data into Stata format, but only under windows.

http://www.stattransfer.com/html/formats.html

has more information on formats that are supported.

Hope that helps,

Neil
