Author Importing AS2K database from FILES into AS2K5?

I do NOT have an AS2K instance so can't use the Migration Wizard. Can I
either import a CAB or the actual files? (odb, mdl, dim, sec, etc)

Thanks

So far no.
You have to use the migration to upgrade the former database.

Unfortunately not.
You must restore the cab file to an AS2K database (of which only the
metadata will be used), run the migration wizard, and then process the new
AS2K5 objects (which will go to the original RDBMS source for its data).
