Corrupted Stack

I searched the archives, but didn't find the silver bullet I was looking
for.

I've distributed a standalone stack (Windows) that calls another in the
"splash screen" style. The second stack is my data stack and it's corrupted.
It can no longer be opened by my standalone app. When I try to open this
data stack directly from Revolution, I get a message "There was a problem
opening that stack: stack is corrupted; check for ~ backup file."

Of course, there's no backup file. Is there any way to ignore the scripting
and just retrieve the data that's stored in the various fields on the cards?
