I have some files of an Oracle database with username and password.

How do I connect to all files and browse the data tables and fields. I want to view all my records in them. Do I install Oracle Database server? Or is there a tool on internet to connect with my all files and browse data?

=== Files have .dmp extension ===

Those .dmp files are data dumps used for backup and recovery. You don't use them as is, but re-import them in your Oracle DBMS.
