I have a lot of files in .pdb format, some of them downloaded, but until now I can't use or read what's inside, so I'm looking for how to read and view the .pdb file format from MS Windows XP.

Any of you that may know how to open it?

PDB files contain data about a file such as an EXE or DLL that is used to aid in debugging. There are public interfaces that allow you to extract data from the file. See examples here:

If you mean PDB as in a Palm Pilot Database, then I know nothing about it, but the file format is available here:
