Thanks for the reply.
Sure do appreciate you taking the time.
After extracting the backup file everything seems to be extracted. But, I don't see any kind of contact folder or file.
I did change the folder options to show hidden files. Still nothing related to contacts except a file called Contacts.DEF located in the "IA Caller ID Photo" folder.
Where would the contacts file be located?

Am I missing something?

Thanks again.

Unfortunately, my tool will only extract files, not databases. (Sorry for misreading your question; I've mixed it up with my contacts restorer tool I've written for ActiveSync (not xBackup) backup - see http://pocketpcmag.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=18858 ).

Right now, after doing a serious forum search at XDA-Devs, I don't know of any solution except finding someone with a pre-WM5 PPC PE device with xBackup and ask him to restore your stuff and, then, backup . export them with PIM Backup.

For example, at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=269889 , a guy called Carty promised to do this task for free - you might want to contact him.
