    .db.bk File

    Need some file help. I had a host create a dump file of a mySQL database for me and the file is a .db file with a .bk extension (database file with a backup extension); i.e. filename.db.bk. I am moving a site to a new server and am used to having a .sql file for the database backup. How do I convert this file to a .sql so I can upload it to the new database?

    That's exactly what it was, simply had to rename it.
