I was able to use "Stuffit Password Remover" to get into the
original un-binhexed file. Unfortunately, it turned out NOT
to be DaynaFile 3.1 as labeled, but was actually SuperVideo
(Radius?).

Luckily I found my original DaynaFile disks. If anyone else
has an orphaned DaynaFile-II, let me know, and I'll spin you
a copy.
