You could see if this old decompiler could do the trick for you:

Use your browser to translate the page from Chinese if necessary. 

I think it cost around a 1000 $ years ago, but it worked really well.

There should be a free demo version that will give you only like 20 lines of code per event / function.

you can view all the PBD's objects -  names, properties, methods, and events from the powerbuilder IDE.

You can export datawindows with a simple PB application

the actual source code you cannot access.

This is why source control is important. Do you have backups of any kind?

If it were possible, how would they know you are authorized to see the source code? It could be a purchased application or even a free demo downloaded from somewhere.

At one time there was a Chinese decompile app but I am pretty sure it works only for PB 10 and older.

It is possible to write an app entirely in PowerBuilder that would extract DataWindow objects and import them into a PBL. Code objects cannot be recovered.

Hi V;

 PBD files are the result of a compile & contain your application's executable code.

 PBL files contain your application's source code.
