Currently I am trying to add a data file from an older install to a new implementation. I was wondering what was the best way to access the data files in order to dump the tables I need. Any and all help would greatly be appreciated.

That would be the export/import of those tables. If you are using 9i, then tablespace export is also available.

Or if you still have both databases running, create db link between them and then use on the new dataabase:

CREATE TABLE <name> AS SELECT * FROM <old_table>@db_link;

If you need more info, or want to learn how to clone db/tablepsaces check Here

Hope that helps,
