The structure and format of Skype history databases

Question

Skype seems to use .db, .db log and .lock files, as well as subdirectories full of .dat files to store conversation history.

Are these file formats available anywhere, or is there an open source library to access them that I can check and possibly change? I think several libraries allow you to retrieve the conversation history, but I would also like to get the insertion of conversation history records.

Answer 1

They are SQLite databases.

You can use SQLite or tool to see its contents.
