You reply suggests, that it is possible to take the data out of Tally, can you inform how?
Well, it is possible to take data out of any application. :) We need to reverse engineer this data. In Tally's case, Tally stores all data for every client in a separate directory. I am sure that earlier versions of Tally(like the very popular DOS version) didnt implement embedded databases on their own. So their data files would be some easily breakable format. Newer versions do claim some kind of encryption I think. But in these cases the formats are likely just extended versions of the earlier file formats with additionals encryption added ( I can be very wrong here)!
In any case, I dont think we should discuss finer details on this matter on this list :)
